Siobhan went to doggy heaven today. She was one of Kevin’s dogs and always up for anything. She loved people and children and whenever anyone came to visit the kennel she always thought they came to see her! She ran in any position in the team and was versatile sometimes going with Polly’s teams if there was a need. She worked last winter in harness and had moved into our doggy retirement community this summer to keep her brother, Angus, company.

Siobhan was 11 1/2 years old. She was lucky enough to go with Kevin on some canoe trips and made a trip down the Allagash River and St John (Wolistoq) River in northern Maine.
We will miss her…

Thanks for the great experience we had on the trip. It was really fun when you included games and swimming along with canoeing and camping to make the trip more enjoyable. Your trip was great, fantastic, stupendous, extraordinary, nothing more, nothing less.
