British bestselling author Damien Lewis is an award-winning journalist who has spent twenty years reporting from war, disaster, and conflict zones. Now Lewis brings his first-rate narrative skills to bear on the inspiriting tale of Judy--an English pointer who perhaps was the only canine prisoner of war.
After being bombed and shipwrecked repeatedly while serving for several wild and war-torn years as a mascot of the World War II Royal Navy Yangtze river gunboats the Gnat and the Grasshopper, Judy ended up in Japanese prisoner of war camps in North Sumatra. Along with locals as slave labor, the American, Australian, and British POWs were forced to build a 1,200-mile single-track railroad through the most horrifying jungles and treacherous mountain passes. Like the one immortalized in the film The Bridge on the River Kwai, this was the other death-railroad building project where POWs slaved under subhuman conditions.
In the midst of this living hell was a beautiful and regal-looking liver and white English pointer named Judy. Whether she was scavenging food to help feed the starving inmates of a hellish Japanese POW camp, or by her presence alone bringing inspiration and hope to men, she was cherished and adored by the Allied servicemen who fought to survive alongside her.
Judy's uncanny ability to sense danger, matched with her quick thinking and impossible daring saved countless lives. More than a close companion she shared in both the men's tragedies and joys. It was in recognition of the extraordinary friendship and protection she offered amidst the unforgiving and savage environment of a Japanese prison camp in Indonesia that she gained her formal status as a POW. From the author of The Dog Who Could Fly and the co-author of Sergeant Rex and It's All About Treo comes one of the most heartwarming and inspiring tales you will ever read.

Chapter One
The tiny puppy wiggled her nose a little further under the wire.
Blessed with a gundog’s excellent peripheral vision she was keeping one eye on those to her rear – her fellow siblings, plus the kennel staff who would little appreciate yet another escape attempt. Ahead of her, just a breath away, lay the outside world – the teeming hustle and bustle of life that lay all about, but which she and her fellow pups were seemingly forever forbidden from experiencing.
It was all just so tantalizingly close.
The English-run Shanghai Dog Kennels had bred the beautiful liver-and-white English Pointer puppies to serve as gundogs for various English gentlemen then resident in Shanghai. But this one pup, it seemed, had other ideas. The Kennels were like an island of calm amid the sea of chaos that was 1936 Shanghai – chaos to which the puppy poised halfway under the wire felt irresistibly drawn.
Before her very nose rickshaws – ancient-looking wooden carts pulled by human bearers – tore back and forth as they weaved through the dusty streets, carrying the better-off Shanghai residents trussed up in formal-looking top hats and dress-coats. Those rickety carriages fought for space with trams and buses, chugging their ponderous way past roadside stalls selling freshly fried and spiced delicacies. And everywhere bright red cloth banners hung from the shopfronts, advertising their wares in exotic-looking Mandarin and Wu calligraphy.
Why it was only she of her siblings who felt this insatiable urge to see, to smell and to taste the wider world – to escape – she didn’t know. But ever since birth, curiosity had seemed to get the better of this, still nameless puppy. And now here she was, glistening nose thrust under the wire and twitching at the bewitching smells that assaulted it, round and chubby backside still within the safe confines of the kennel, but with only a few more wriggles and a final squeeze required to break free.
Doubtless, one voice inside the pup’s head was telling her: don’t do it! But another, equally strident voice was urging – go for it, girl! In that moment of indecision as she peered beneath the wire the little puppy heard a yell of alarm from behind. She’d been spotted! It was the cry of Lee Ming, the local Chinese girl whose mother lived and worked at the kennels, raising the alarm. Lee Ming was quick and nimble and would be on her like a flash unless she got a move on.
Tiny forepaws thrashed and scrabbled at the dirt, as she fought to squeeze her way under the wire. The wrinkly folds of puppy fat rolled and gave beneath her, as she got her belly down even lower and wriggled like a fat fish stuck on an angler’s hook. The bare stub of a tail, sticking out behind her like a long and rigid finger, twitched to and fro as she strove with all her might to break free.
Behind her Lee Ming came to a sudden halt and reached to grab the disobedient puppy, but as she did so the tiny ball of irrepressible energy gave one last Herculean effort and she was through. An instant and a scamper later and – pouf! – the diminutive four-legged figure was gone, paws flying as she was swallowed up into the noise and dust and utter disorder of downtown Shanghai.
For a horrible moment Lee Ming stared after the puppy that had disappeared, in complete dismay. There were so many dangers stalking those city streets that she didn’t have the heart to imagine the half of them. If there was one thing the little puppy wasn’t, it was streetwise. In her headlong confusion she might be run over by a rickshaw. In her fright she might tumble into one of the city’s myriad open sewers. But worst of all, a roly-poly puppy like her would offer a tantalizing meal to those partial to dog meat – which included the large majority of the city’s native population.
In 1936 Shanghai the flesh of man’s best friend was much sought-after, being seen as something of a ‘sweet’-tasting delicacy. A young and tender dog that no one seemed to own or to care for would be fair game. Lee Ming turned back towards the large, colonial-style house that lay in the centre of the kennel compound. She headed for reception to report the bad news, and to help raise whatever search party they would send after the wayward pup. But her heart was heavy and a dark foreboding lay upon her.
She feared very much that was the last they’d ever see of the puppy that had run away.
==#==
The Shanghai that the puppy had made a break for was no place for any defenceless being, let alone an English Pointer barely a few weeks old. Then a city of some three million inhabitants, Shanghai – a port city lying in the very centre of China’s coastline – was a bustling metropolis red in tooth and claw. Positioned at the mouth of the mighty Yangtze River – Asia’s longest, and a vital conduit for trade and commerce into China’s vast interior – the great powers of Britain, America and France had long-established trading settlements in the city.
For decades, Shanghai had been known as ‘The Paris of the East’, but in recent years she had become a city beset by troubles. Weak leadership and infighting among the Chinese government had allowed vicious gangs of bandits to thrive. Warlords had taken control of large tracts of the nation’s interior. Increasingly, Britain, America and France had been forced to send gunboats far into the interior on the Yangtze, in an effort to dissuade these lawless elements from disrupting their lucrative trade in silk, cotton, tea and other valuable commodities.
Recently, trouble had piled upon trouble, in particular with the resurgence of China’s age-old enemy – Japan. In an escalating series of bloody skirmishes the Japanese Navy had bombarded Shanghai. As they had with the British and the other ‘great powers’, the Chinese were forced to sign a treaty with Imperial Japan, allowing the Japanese to establish a permanent presence in the ‘treaty port’ of Shanghai. Imperial Japan made little secret of her desire to conquer and subjugate the entire Chinese nation, and Shanghai was the gateway to China’s then capital city, Nanking.
This then was Shanghai, the city that the escapee from the kennels had absconded to – one menaced by gangland banditry, and whose streets were increasingly plagued by soldiers from Imperial Japan, who showed ill-disguised contempt for the local inhabitants. So it was something of a miracle that several weeks after her dramatic breakout, the puppy who had run away was still very much alive and breathing.
The silky chubbiness was long gone, of course. Instead, adolescent ribs poked through a liver-and-white coat that had lost much of its shine and lustre. Her nose was dry and cracked, a sure sign that she was in a dreadful condition. Only her eyes seemed to demonstrate their signature brightness, betraying a strength of character that had distinguished her from birth, and perhaps led to her present, unenviable predicament. They shone with a burning curiosity and a zest for life, despite all that she had suffered since her ill-fated ‘escape’. But there was something else now in her gaze – uncertainty and vulnerability, a sense that the young dog had realized to her cost that not every human was her natural friend and ally.
How stupid she had been, she now recognized, to run away. She had traded the comfort and luxury of the kennels for a battered old cardboard box lying in a smelly, fly-blown Shanghai alleyway. She’d traded the companionship and playfulness of her brother and sister puppies for the loneliness of life on the streets. And in place of the English kennel owner’s natural love for and protection over their dogs, she’d faced cruelty and abuse at every turn in this overcrowded human zoo of a city.
All apart from one individual – Soo. For whatever reason, Soo the Chinese trader was an unreconstructed lover of dogs. Her shabby box-cum-home lay to the rear of his store, and ever since the puppy had found her way to it Soo had taken it upon himself to deliver titbits of food to her, of an evening when his long day’s work was done. It was hardly the kind of diet she’d grown accustomed to at the kennels, but at least it had served to keep her alive.
Like many Chinese, it wasn’t in Soo’s nature or family tradition to keep a dog at home as a pet. In the China of 1936 dogs had to earn their keep as working animals, or they were invariably for the pot. In fact, the eating of dog meat in China had a history stretching back thousands of years, the meat being thought to possess mystical medicinal properties. There were even some breeds of dog that were kept specifically for human consumption, especially in times of seasonal hunger.
Fortunately, Soo wasn’t one of those who were partial to having dog on the menu, and the lost puppy from the Shanghai Dog Kennels was lucky indeed to have fallen by chance under his protection.
But tonight, all of that was about to change.
With a sixth sense that was to become her absolute trademark, the lonely pup detected the danger before it was audible or visible to any human ear or eye, Soo’s included. A Japanese gunboat had docked in the port of Shanghai, and the sailors of the His Japanese Imperial Majesty’s Ship were making their noisy way along the very road upon which Soo’s shop was situated, no doubt in search of alcohol and some locals on which to vent their aggression. It was late evening, but the hardworking Soo was still there, his being one of the few stores on the street remaining open.
That alone offered enough of an excuse for the gunboat crew to pounce.
As the Japanese sailors started verbally abusing Soo and helping themselves to his wares, he of course protested. Voices were raised in anger, but the Japanese sailors didn’t stop there. Within minutes Soo’s shop had been plundered, its rickety wooden shelves torn down and smashed to pieces. As for Soo, he was set upon by the Japanese sailors, who were working themselves up into a towering rage.
Hearing her one protector in the world being so cruelly assaulted, the adolescent pup had stolen out of her alleyway and sneaked around the corner to see if there was anything she could do to save him. Inching forward on her belly, she alternately whimpered in fright and tried to muster her most threatening growl, as the strange figures in their baggy trousers over knee-high black boots kicked and punched her protector.
Then one of the aggressors spotted the cowering dog. He stepped away from Soo and took a few paces towards her. Moments later one of those perfectly polished boots was swinging towards the adolescent puppy’s midriff. The powerful blow lifted her from the cobbles and flung her across the street into a pile of rubbish on the far side. There she lay, whimpering and in agony, and hoping beyond hope that these cruel men in their strange uniforms wouldn’t come for her again.
By the time their oppressors had departed, Soo had been beaten so badly that he had to be helped away from the scene. The dog that had until now viewed him as her protector was forced to take refuge in the empty shadows of a nearby doorway. Into it she crawled, body sore from the kicking, belly sore from that and the ravening hunger, and her spirit numbed by the trauma and the cold of the long night that lay ahead.
Even though the Japanese sailors were long gone, the lonely puppy sensed that tonight her dream of escape from the Shanghai Kennels had descended into the blackest of nightmares – but as is so often the case, the darkest moment is just before the dawn.
As the sun crept above the city’s grand, colonial-style skyline, a familiar figure began to pad her way along the street on which the young dog lay. The lone puppy was shivering and crying to herself and lost in misery – so much so that she almost didn’t notice the pitter-patter of footsteps come to a halt, or to hear the words uttered in amazement in her direction.
‘Shudi? Shudi? Oh, Shudi! What happened? Where have you been?’
The long tail of the Pointer – now stained off-white with the dirt and soot from her street-side existence – almost failed to wag in any sign of recognition. But the young dog had recognized the soft tones of the voice, just as surely as the little girl from the kennels had recognized the distraught puppy. Her distinctive markings – a sleek liver-brown head, a similarly-coloured saddle-like marking thrown across her shoulders, plus the large formless splodge of colour splashed across her rear right flank – had been instantly recognizable to Lee Ming.
No doubt about it – this was the one that had run away!
In a sprawling city of some three million inhabitants the girl from the Shanghai Kennels had, by chance, chosen to walk that morning past the very door where the lost and injured dog was sheltering. Lee Ming bent, scooped the puppy up and thrust her deep inside her jacket. With that she ran and skipped through the largely deserted streets, eager to announce her find to the English lady who ran the kennels.
By the time she had reached the big house that lay inside the compound and unzipped her jacket, the puppy had fallen fast asleep.
‘Look! Look! I find Shudi!’ the little girl announced ecstatically.
The Englishwoman peered doubtfully over the high desk behind which she sat. Spying the puppy, she reached out uncertainly and took the little dog from the girl’s outstretched arms. She pulled her closer, stroked her and fondled her just behind the ears, as she studied the markings and tried to compare them to those in her memory. The puppy opened one lazy eye, saw where she was, seemed to smile exhaustedly then slipped back into a sweet sleep.
It was the turn of the Englishwoman to smile. ‘It is her. It really is the one who ran away.’ She glanced at Lee Ming who was beaming with happiness. ‘So, I think it’s time you gave her a good bath and a dinner, don’t you?’
Lee Ming nodded enthusiastically. There was nothing she’d like more than to feed and comfort the wayward pup. She held out her arms so ‘Shudi’ could be returned to her and she could whisk her off for some much-needed tender loving care.
The woman handed the pup across. She glanced at Lee Ming curiously. ‘But tell me, why do you call her Shudi?’
Lee Ming placed the warm but exhausted bundle back inside her jacket. ‘I always call this one Shudi,’ she replied shyly. ‘Shudi means peaceful. Peaceful is how she looks, yes?’
The woman reached out and caressed Lee Ming’s face. ‘She does. Yes she does. And Lee Ming – that shall be her name from now on: Judy.’
So it was that the puppy who had run away and come back again against all odds was given a name perhaps most ill-suited to her nature: the Mandarin word for the peaceful one – shudi – or rendered into ‘Judy’ for whichever lucky Englishman might be her future master.
As the little girl carried Shudi – Judy – off for a good pamper, little did she realize how a dog with such inauspicious beginnings would go on to distinguish herself in the coming bloody and allconsuming conflict . . .
Lee Ming could have no idea how famous the English Pointer from the Shanghai Kennels would become, once the Second World War drew to a close.

She helped above and beyond the call of duty - many times over
By Peter Durward Harris
Judy was indeed a most extraordinary dog by whatever standards - even by human standards - that one cares to judge. Born in the mid-thirties, she spend most of her life among troops aboard ships. In the West, we think of WW 2 as starting in 1939, but it seems that Japan started aggression against China a little earlier - and Judy was on board from quite early on.
I learned a lot of things from this book. I didn't know that troop ships habitually had animals (not always dogs) on board, partly to keep up morale but also because some animals could perform other useful tasks. Those other tasks mean that dogs are often chosen as the on-board animal, but other animals have sometimes been chosen instead. It seems that the people who selected Judy were particularly fortunate in their choice. As I know from following horse racing, a potential owner can choose from young animals on whatever criteria they like, but it's no guarantee that the chosen animal lives up to expectations. Judy far exceeded expectations, ending up as a champion, with a medal equivalent to the Victoria Cross to prove it.
The author tells Judy's story and how effective she was at warning troops of impending danger, discussing various incidents in which risked her life for them, as well as other incidents in which the troops risked their lives for her, It seems that both dog and troops were willing to take these risks because each was heavily dependent on the other. The troops quickly leaned to take Judy's barking seriously, especially when it was incessant. She even fooled the enemy once after realizing that her own men were in danger from the Japanese. In a desperate effort to distract the enemy, she resorted to incessant barking, perhaps implying that a tiger was nearby. However, Judy was lying just to cause a distraction. I didn't think dogs were clever enough to think that way.
Through it all, Judy came through to have a peaceful retirement with her master in Tanganyika (now Tanzania), after saving many lives by alerting troops to danger or diverting enemy attention. Yes, Judy helped above and beyond the call of duty - many times over.

and learn her story from the people that knew and loved her. Trust me
By Athena R. Schaffer
*One of the most heart-stopping thrillers I have ever read is actually based on a true story. “Judy: The Unforgettable Story of a Dog Who Went To War And Became A True Hero” by Damien Lewis (Quercus/Hatchette Book Group) is a harrowing yet heartwarming story of an incredible canine that would’ve put both Lassie and Rin Tin Tin to shame, as impossible as that sounds! The English Pointer known as Judy of Sussex was not only the mascot of British gunboats “The Gnat” and “The Grasshopper”, she was also the only animal who was made an official Prisoner of War by the Japanese, and given the POW number “81A-Medan”.
In the author’s preface/intro, he shared the story of his inspiration for writing this book – a photograph of a distinguished-looking English Pointer who was being awarded the British Dicken Medal of Heroism after the end of World War II, which sparked his search to find out who this prestigious pooch was, and learn her story from the people that knew and loved her. Trust me, I had to use that detail as a mantra numerous times throughout the book as I damn near went into cardiac arrest from some of Judy’s near-death experiences: “She got a medal in the UK. She had to make it out of this!” I swear, this lucky lady had more lives than a cat!
That said, I don’t want to give away too much – I want you to experience not only Judy’s life journey, but the impact she made on all those who knew her, friend or foe. This is one of the most remarkable stories I have ever read, and I don’t have any fingernails left – they were all bitten to the core as Judy’s tale unfolded.
Starting with humble beginnings as a curious puppy born to a breeder in Shanghai who supplied English gentlemen stationed there with hunting dogs, “Shudi” (ironically meaning “peaceful one”) escaped from her breeder early on, and survived the streets of Shanghai where dog was prized as a meat source only because she was taken in by a kindly shopkeeper. Although war had not officially yet been declared, Japanese sailors bullied shopkeepers in the city, and “Shudi’s” benefactor was one of those attacked. Luckily, the daughter of one of her breeder’s kennel workers found her and brought her home.
Renamed to the Anglicized “Judy”, she was adopted as the ship’s mascot for the British gunboat “Gnat”. The horrors of war were soon to follow as the Japanese attacked Chinese targets, and the Allies became engaged in the Second World War itself. She not only proves herself to be an early alarm system to a myriad of dangers, she also survives and aids her Human family in surviving bombings, sinking ships, and prisoner of war camps of the most extreme conditions. She manages to find her “human family” supplemental food when rations in the prison camps equated starvation. She even takes on a crocodile – yes, with serious injuries – when trying to find safety for her “Human Family” in the jungles of Sumatra. Her POW family – forced to build a railroad through Sumatra in conditions worse than those outlined in “The Bridge On The River Kwai” – depended on her courage, tenacity, and loyalty for their very survival from the horrors they faced on a daily basis.
I would love to sing her praises in each and every little nuance that she contributed to human survival – including bringing survivors from a torpedoed and sinking ship to safety at no thought to herself. She felt the need to save as many humans as possible. But that would rob you of the amazement of this grrl’s incredible story.
Seriously, not only animal lovers but anyone who either loves a thrill ride or holds hope in high esteem MUST read this book!

A Canine Prisoner of War - a Hero
By Patricia Reding
It is not all that often that I read a tale, the central focus of which is an animal. However, stories of animals that military forces have used over the years, intrigue me. Judy: The Unforgettable Story of the Dog Who Went to War and Became a Hero, by Damien Lewis, did not disappoint. It tells the story of an English pointer, originally dubbed Shudi by her Chinese caregiver, whose life really began when she escaped from the Shanghai Kennels. Eventually the crew of an English gunboat adopted her as their “gundog.” It seems it was common at the time, for gunboat personnel to take on a mascot, be it a dog, cat, pigeon, or even a monkey. Judy proved herself a valuable member of the crew—though they soon discovered she seemed to have “a fatal flaw in her ‘pointing’ abilities’”—when she warned them of dangers coming their way.
Judy’s life was one of adventure and mishap. Interestingly, there seemed to be a divine hand of protection over her, as she escaped from a number of life threatening incidents, only to land in a Japanese concentration camp where she spent over three years. There, with the latest of her friends and protectors, she provided her human comrades not only a morale booster, but also the occasional meal, in the form of a snake, rat, or other small creature. She also earned herself an official Japanese prisoner-of-war number. All this, though it was highly unlikely for a dog to survive the Koran camp guards—as they, like the camp inmates, lived on starving rations—and the guards ate dog. After leaving the camp with the one man she loved above all others, Royal Air Force technician Frank Williams, Judy finally made her way to freedom. If you are looking for a story of inspiration and encouragement, look no further than Judy.
