Barbara Anslow:

Soon after returning to Hong Kong in 1946, I was astonished one day to see Miss W. Sutton, a middle-aged internee with a withered arm, walking along with a little dog on a lead - I was told this was the same dog she had with her in Stanley until the Japanese took all dogs out of the camp.
