In the beginning there was billy

Meet billy. My beautiful girl. The best dog in the universe.
This is her story, her strong shining spirit.

I thought I would tell you in instalments, to get the story underway and to show good faith. To begin with, let's get the real life sad bit out of the way. Then the story that lives on and unfolds year by year, as revealed by the Christmas dards, will follow. It may seem that one does not affect the other but billy changes everything, she was one spedial girl. She stayed with e a long time. I was very, very lucky that she chose to arrive.
I will endeavour not to make the story too long. Most of it is written down alredy. I felt it needed a little background to make it intelligible and... like most stories it began with... 'I fell in love' and moved interstate. That was when I meet billy.
