R.I.P. Bullet

My last teammates to be away arrived back three days ago, and that very evening their dog Bullet was bitten by a puff adder (a deadly venomous snake). Bullet attacked the snake to protect his master Daniel, who was walking towards the snake. We all loved Bullet, a handsome, smart, friendly (to the right people!), dutiful German Shepherd, and we were so sad to see suffer through the effects of the bite. By the next morning, he had died.

  1. Was so sorry to hear about this. The poor children just back after such a long time and then this.

    1. Thank you for your sympathy, Heather. Daniel is working on getting another dog from the same kennel in Nairobi where he got Bullet. Would appreciate prayer that the logistics for this can be worked out.
