Maxy, the Brave Italian Greyhound

At the end of a long stressful day, Lynda and I sat in the garden enjoying the last rays of the winter sun while Maxy, one of my Italian Greyhounds kept a lookout for any of Africa's widest beasts. We live very close to the Lion Park and frequently the primal roars of the lions shatters the still air.

I often wonder what goes through Maxy's mind when he hears the Lions but he is a brave little soul and would not hesitate to keep his pack safe.
