The Best Dog

The Best Dog

I call Red the best dog, as much as I love Fate, I believe Red is one of the great dogs in my life. He is easy, loving, patient and faithful. I sat with my friend Scott Carrino out in the back near the fallen tree and Red went over to the gate and lay down and watched me and waited for me.

Red is always at my side, always appropriate, affectionate. I love having two such disparate dogs, Red and Fate are the polar opposites of one another. They also love one another, each helps define the other, I think. I know Fate will be a great dog, but I will never have a greater dog than Red. I  trust him completely, anywhere, with anyone.
