I didn’t know that she also loved pigeons. She had a beautiful Boston Terrier named Phiz, often misrepresented as a pit bull though Phiz came directly from a breeder’s kennel as a gift to Keller from her school friends. Keller also had a dark colored French Bulldog among many others, I’m so glad she found such bonding with dogs.
