Chaser is Dixie’s mom. Chaser passed away a few days ago, and I wanted to share a happy day I had with Chaser and Dixie. We went on this fine fall day up Hunter Creek to their favorite swimming hole. When Chaser and Dixie were together, they were quite the pair. Dixie had to do everything her mom did, and they both loved getting into mischief. If one found a good stinky place to roll in, the other had to be just a bit more dirty and stinky. It was all bets off when it was time to swim and fetch the stick. Fierce competition! Sometimes the only way to get these two knuckle heads to sit still was to bribe them with a cookie. How else are you going to get two crazy goldens to sit still for a photograph? On the way back from the swim, we stopped in the meadow. The light was just right, and luckily we had enough cookies to keep them still for a bit. Here are the resulting images. Enjoy! We will all miss Chaser – that crazy love hound, our Chaser Monkey.
