EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the winter of 1966. The Mallin family, consisting of Mr Peter Mallin, his wife Pat, and their adventurous 11-year-old daughter Penny, are determined to ensure that their beloved labradors receive their much-needed sustenance despite the harsh weather conditions. With snow-covered fields stretching as far as the eye can see, the trio takes on a formidable challenge - hauling frozen dog food half a mile from Cowbridge road at Bonvilston to their kennels. Undeterred by the unfit road conditions for their car over an astonishing 11-day period, they opt for sledges instead. The image captures not only the determination of this hardy trio but also showcases a beautiful bond between humans and animals. As they navigate through the snowy landscape with toboggans in tow, one can almost feel the biting cold against their cheeks and hear laughter echoing through the frosty air. This heartwarming snapshot is a testament to resilience in adverse circumstances and reminds us of simpler times when families embraced nature's challenges together. It serves as a reminder that even amidst freezing temperatures and treacherous roads, love knows no bounds - not even when it comes to ensuring man's best friend receives proper care.
