~ Northwest section, a little
old fellow Is spending his
last days with all the COM
fort and tender care that a
longtime, venerable COM
panion deserves.
He is SNOWFALL, a spitz
belonging to DR.. Ralph M.
Samuel, SLOT Connecticut
avenue NV. SNOWFALL Is
almost % years old and, If
there is any truth in the
statement that each year Of a
dogs age equals seven years
Of human life. then Snowy
can be said to be as old as a
154-year-old human.
Snowy was born here May
II, 1929, and was only a s.
week -old ball Of white fluff
when DR.. Samuel took him
home in his coat pocket.
Through the intervening
years, they have been con-
slant companions.
He was a lively fellow when
young and was pretty frisky
until about five years ago
when age began to catch up
with him. Now he walks with
an infirm gait. To conserve
the dogs energy, DR.. Samuel,
an optometrist, carries him
up and down stairs.
Stories are a dime a dozen
about dogs dying Of loneliness
