My childhood friend and companion passed away at the age at 14 1/2 years. He lived a good and happy life, always hiking with me in the backwoods. He accompanied me on many occasions so I didn’t dwell in the wilderness alone. Here he is resting on Spring Canyon Trail in Zion National Park.
He was a great dog! I'm glad you put up a picture of him here. I probably will put one on my site too. I miss him but I know he's probably out chasing tennis balls, basketballs, and bowling balls in dog heaven. He was suffering quite a bit there at the end.
Rest in peace.
RIP.Compassion.
