My mama loves India, especially Ganeshpuri. It’s a little village near Mumbai.

The dogs in India have a pretty hard time – in all sorts of ways.  Mama feeds them biscuits because they are often hungry.

In a country like India, these little puppies have the odds stacked against them. Fortunately, they don’t know. For the moment, they were contented – as contented as you can be with a half-empty tummy.

These two dogs live in Udaipur, in the Lal Ghat area near Lake Pichola.

Udaipur is known for its lake, home to the opulent Taj hotel that sits in the middle of it. The hotel was the location for the Bond movie Octopussy, and all around the town are signs advertising this presumably a way of establishing credibility with the Western tourists who visit.

My mum says Udaipur is one of her favourite places in India even
though she’s not a Bond movie fan. The dogs certainly look like they love it!
