I Am Maggie

Mama helped with the typing, but these are my stories about my puppy years. You will read about animals I befriended, happy times on the trails, and times when I was in trouble or scared by lightning, rattlesnakes, bees, and rain beetles to name a few. I have left the fence line unguarded too long now so I have to take off. Mama can continue from here. When Maggie joined our family, we hoped she would fill the void left by the loss of our first dog, Toots. We wanted a dog to be an ambassador on the trail, to love snow and water play, and to get along with other animals and people. At first, Maggie and Toots seemed like polar opposites. Ultimately, love proved to be the defining similarity and Maggie was so much more than a replacement. It has been an honor to share Maggie's first years, and now with the arrival of two grandchildren, there is so much joy seeing her welcome Eve and Eli into our pack and our lives.
