Animal Crusaders • Commemorative Issue • October 2010Rex the BoxerMy first pet,my Doggy-palNobody can forget his first pet, orfor that matter any pet in hislifetime!I still have fond memories of Rexmy Boxer, my best friend at theage of eight.That was in the year 1925, myfamily was staying in Bombaythen.Though I used to proudlyintroduce Rex as ‘my dog’; he, infact, was another child for mymother who was the kindest soulI have ever known on this earth.Though my father used to takeRex for long drives along with usand play with him sometimes, itwas my mother who used to doteon Rex. After my interaction withRex I could not stay for a singleday in my life without a dog andI realised …Dogs are our link toparadise. They don’t know evil orjealousy or discontent. To sit with adog on a hillside on a gloriousafternoon is to be back in Eden,where doing nothing was notboring – it was peace. Bless youRex!~ Russi Mody29
