A Good Dog is Hard to Find

Many of you know that I have a GIANT dog that I adore, but for those of you who did not know about him, or would like to get to know him better, this post is dedicated....to Forrest. (sentimental music playing in background)

We have had him for about six or seven years now.

We adopted him from the German Shepherd Rescue of Northern Utah. A lot of people think that means he knows how to rescue people...he doesn't.

He is pretty handy to have around the house though.

You probably can't tell how large he really is here, so I had jane sit by him...

See there she is.

He enjoyed catching frisbees, he even was in a frisbee catching contest..he didn't win, he just isn't into competition, he does it for the love of the game. He also enjoys eating bees or hornets (one of my favorite things about him), swimming, chasing cats, getting into the garbage, and long walks, well not so much anymore.

Forrest doesn't get around much now.

He just lays around, his hips hurt him a lot.

He has been on a lot of trips with us. We took him to Havasupie (I'm sure I didn't spell that right), Canada up to all the beautiful sights up there, Flaming Gorge and many other camping trips.

He is still a very good dog.

We love you Forrest
