The Old Lagoon Dog Bears Witness to the War’s Atrocities | C. Christine Fair

January 22, 2020

Whelped behind an old Hindu temple on the road linking the beach of Mullaitivu and the lagoon, she was the lone survivor of her pack easily recognized by her light brown coat, perky ears, pointed snout and delicate feet.
