Reason to Smile- Hounds For Heroes

Hi everyone, I hope that you are well today.

During a very much treasured phone call with my Mum today, she told me to check out this story which she watched on her local news.

The story involves Allen Parton and EJ the dog, who feature in the book Endal- which depicts the true story of Allen's own life changing accident which left him dependant on a wheelchair and the world's most decorated dog, Endal.

The book is a must read and so is this short article about Allen's latest venture, a charity to help provide assistance dogs for veterans.

The link to the article is http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/hampshire/8557758.stm , but I also include the link to Allen, Endal and EJ's full story http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endal.

Please check out the story more thoroughly in the brilliant book http://www.amazon.co.uk/Endal-extraordinary-brought-family-brink/dp/0007303009/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1320365000&sr=8-1
