shooting the rapids
of the Buckinghorse River~
crazy spaniel!

We were driving the Alaska Highway with our springer spaniel, Buddy. We camped one evening by the Buckinghorse River (an apt name) in northern British Columbia. Buddy wandered away from the camp. The next we saw of him was his head bobbing down through the rapids. We yelled and waved to no avail. A ways downstream he hauled himself out, came back to camp, shook himself vigorously, and then ran off up stream to do it again!
