Red Dog
One fine Saturday in March of 2001, nine months after moving here, Louise returned from a trip to the market to find a beautiful reddish colored Golden Retriever in the yard. After several unsuccessful attempts to find out where he came from, she and her partner Steve resigned themselves to becoming first time pet owners. Over the years, Red Dog brought much joy to everyone he came in contact with. For many guests, a little Red Dog therapy was the highlight of their visit. Sadly, at the beginning of 2012, Red Dog transitioned to the spirit world though his loving energy will remain with us forever.
