Last week,Uncategorized Archives a dog died. Not just any dog. It was Oddball, the famous maremma.
Oddball was a lot of things: A penguin protector (seriously), loyal companion and the inspiration for a hit film, based on her life.

She was the very first dog sent to the island as part of the Middle Island Maremma Project, and definitively proved that maremmas were capable of protecting the at-risk penguin population.

"She was 105 in dog years, so she had a pretty good innings," Marsh told the ABC. "She's had a great legacy, and she'll always be remembered as one of the most polite dogs around."
