This dog has done some pretty cool trips, backpacking with me, canoe trips, paddle boarding, long trail runs, mountain hikes, met up with bears and a cougar (Not too close!!!), LOL. I don’t think she would have been much help if we were ever threatened- she wanted to run away in the opposite direction! She’d fetch sticks out of any body of water in any weather or surf size. Penchant for eating poop and other gross stuff. Loved snow. Always stood majestically at summits and look outs, hated black flies. I’d take her to work occasionally. When Ian would stay over (before she couldn’t walk up stairs anymore), she’d take herself upstairs to my (“our”) bed and lay claim to it- before we went to bed- she didn’t want to share me ;). Loved chasing “her” cats and any cat or squirrel.
Thanks for making our goodbye easy.
