Thank you very much for sharing your time, experience and the wonderful life that you have built with the dogs, yourselves and that beautiful country up in Newry. The best part of the trip was watching you interact with the dogs. I was repeatedly touched by the gentleness, compassion and strength with which you guided the dog teams. It was inspiring, for it was somehow reflective of the ways in which the two of you looked at life.
