Animal Aid/Udaipur: October 7th

Udaipur looks good after the monsoon! There's water in the lake again...

Pramod. What a great smile he has.
Fateh Lal. Another great smiler!
Chai time.
Fergus scratching while everyone has chai.
Mixing up special food for the sicker dogs...milk, eggs, and lots of chapatis.
I cannot remember her name right now...but she loves the animals and gives them massages.
Minnie is getting a bath. Minnie only has 2 legs, but she gets around quite nicely and can pick up her entire hind end when she wants to get somewhere. (Not for long distances, but still...)
A dog that came in today was very scared, and the guys had to get it muzzled before it could be evaluated and treated.
When Suraj pulled out the sugar block, the cows went bonkers! (They give some sugar with the cows pills...it's a good incentive to eat the pills.)

Ram Ji and Pramod checking paperwork after the morning's pickups...3 dogs, 1 donkey, and a cow.
Unloading the cow was interesting. :)
This was right after we picked up the donkey. All of the other animals in the truck needed to be rearranged to accommodate the donkey.
The cow probably has a broken leg. It was hit by a car on the highway.

While running all around Udaipur picking up dogs and supplies, Ram Ji makes lots of phone calls to confirm the location for the next pickup.
We made a trip into the dump today. It reminded me of La Chureca in Managua. Except less people live there, thankfully.

Damn! I love your still life photos! You make things look so elegant! The rest were great, too, but ending with the still life,that's what made the impression on me.
