Spring Falls

My best dog yet, Quincy, got the same way at the end of his life. His heart was still into the hiking/canoeing etc. but his body quit cooperating. It was sad to see him get that way. A shepherd as well. He once spent 2 or 3 nights seperated from our camping group along the Big Manistee. As we hiked and looked for him we asked anyone we saw to help us out- by putting him in or tieing him to our truck (Willy's old '68 Ford) parked at Red Bridge- if they found him. When we finished our canoe trip- you wouldn't believe how happy I was to find my old buddy in the back of that truck. Who knows what he experienced along the way. Dogs are truly good friends.

i know (all to well) how this is.......
