Buckley -”Everyones Best Friend” RIP 2004 - 2006
Those of you who have visited Arugam Bay, Rocco’s Hotel or Tsunami Hotel will have been jumped on, entertained and generally amused by the lopping Rhodesian Ridgeback; Buckley.
Unfortunately, he died 3 days ago, still a puppy at 2 years old.
A hero in his day, helping our local cook Amir, regain his feet after a wall had collapsed knocking him down during the Tsunami December 2004, possibly saving his life.
His animal “Sixth sense” giving us the “All clear” on the day of the second earthquake 28th March 2005 as we waited in the dark watching a very agitated Buckley, once he fell asleep we knew danger had passed.
He will be missed “Man’s best friend”
“Asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over”
Dream Brother, Jeff Buckley
