"Judy, a purebred pointer, was the mascot of several ships in the Pacific, and was captured by the Japanese in 1942 and taken to a prison camp. There she met Aircraftsman Frank Williams, who shared his small portion of rice with her.
Judy raised morale in the POW camp, and also barked when poisonous snakes, crocodiles or even tigers approached the prisoners. When the prisoners were shipped back to Singapore, she was smuggled out in a rice sack, never whimpering or betraying her presence to the guards.
The next day, that ship was torpedoed. Williams pushed Judy out of a porthole in an attempt to save her life, even though there was a 15-foot drop to the sea. He made his own escape from the ship, but was then recaptured and sent to a new POW camp.
He didn't know if Judy had survived, but soon he began hearing stories about a dog helping drowning men reach pieces of debris after the shipwreck. And when Williams arrived at the new camp, he said: "I couldn’t believe my eyes! As I walked through the gate, a scraggly dog hit me square between the shoulders and knocked me over. I’d never been so glad to see the old girl!"
They spent a year together at that camp in Sumatra. "Judy saved my life in so many ways," said Williams. "But the greatest of all was giving me a reason to live. All I had to do was look into those weary, bloodshot eyes and ask myself: 'What would happen to her if I died?' I had to keep going."
Once hostilities ceased, Judy was then smuggled aboard a troopship heading back to Liverpool. In England, she was awarded the Dickin Medal (the "Victoria Cross" for animals) in May 1946. Her citation reads: "For magnificent courage and endurance in Japanese prison camps, which helped to maintain morale among her fellow prisoners, and also for saving many lives through her intelligence and watchfulness".
At the same time, Frank Williams was awarded the PDSA's White Cross of St. Giles for his devotion to Judy. Frank and Judy spent a year after the war visiting the relatives of English POWs who had not survived, and Frank said that Judy "always provided a comforting presence to the families."
When Judy finally died at the age of 13, Frank spent two months building a granite and marble memorial in her memory, which included a plaque describing her life story." Dogs are family ❤

We'd like to introduce you to the newest member of our family, Clementine (Cleo). She is a Bernedoodle, and is just so adorable! As you can see, Winston has taken to her. Even Scooby, who is not so sure of Winston, is so sweet with Cleo! 💕

Our 2nd litter of puppies are here, and Mom and pups are doing great! She had 3 boys and 3 girls, so both of our litters have 6 pups in them for a total of 4 boys and 8 girls. :) We also had another Mom ultrasound pregnant this morning! She will be due in October and the pups will go home in December! That is great news for those of you on our list after 12! Also, please remember that some people above you on the list might roll to a later litter, so you might move up! Once puppy pickout starts for the first litter (in 2 weeks) we will know more about which litters people will land in. Now is the time for everyone on the list to get your 2nd deposits in please. :) If I don't have your deposit within the next week, the people below you will move up. Thank you!
