This Dog is Packin

Finn, my future dog-in-law, has been hiking in Vermont with Mia and Andrew. Finn carries his share of the load with his handy-dandy dog pack. The pack doubles as a life preserver. Notice the handle on the back which can be used to pluck the poor dog from the river if he goes overboard. Finn is a rescue who was adopted by Andrew just as Mia was entering the picture. Andrew came with canine baggage! Luckily, Finn and Mia get along just fine. Finn has visited us on the farm but tends to be slightly overwhelmed with dogs everywhere, cats everywhere, not to mention many wooly and horned beasts running around the fields. We hope Finn can come more often and get used to all his "new friends."
