At home in June Lake.
Search Dog Trapper & Slider
First snow!
Below is an excerpt from Slider's early days of training with his handler:
"He's doing fantastic work, but I'm still trying to convince him that this is not a "timed" event.
He's like a little race horse."
"He's quite a prankster. That mind of his is always working. I don't see such a high level of curiosity in other dogs.".
"He just has to see what everyone has inside their cars...and when we get together with other
handlers he often will take a flying leap to get in their cars and go through
their stuff..."
Ready? Search!!
Carry You
When I brought you home, I carried you.
I held you close and made a promise that day.
As I breathed in that sweet, soft, clean smell,
I promised to carry you, and keep you safe and well.
I laughed and spoke so quietly to you
I taught you your name. You showed me your heart
And I showed you mine, as I carried you that day.
When I take you home, I'll carry you.
I'll hold you close, as I promised that day.
I'll breathe in that old familiar smell,
and keep my promise to keep you safe and well.
I'll cry as I speak so quietly to you.
I'll say your name. You'll show me your heart.
And I will lose mine, when I carry you, that day.
