You are very welcome.. Since I first heard this story I knew I had to share it.. I had to stop recording at least 8 times before I could continue.. Somehow the second ~half of George Vest's closing argument was "lost" over the years.. Thanks for watching.. ..Happy Trails.!!

Lovely words mate, some unfortunately so very true. I've had quite a few dogs over my 75 years, all mongrels and strays. Elli, my whippet - lurcher is around 10 now. She may live to 14 but what can I do when she goes. Maybe find some old mangey wrinkly like me so we can both make a mess on the lawn. The dog before Elli, Luna was over 18 when she died. Best to wait and see who snuffs it first - LOL.

Howdy jp.. If you don't have a dog there,, how will you explain the messes on the lawn then.? Had you ever heard that story, or did you ever watch the show "Death Valley Days".? It is unfortunate that only the first half of the eulogy "survived".. Thanks for watching.. ..Happy Trails.!!

​@@deserthorizons That's a good excuse for getting an 'old banger' to keep me company on a frosty morning. As we are the masters of the world how come we need toilet pape rand dogs don't ? There is a poem written by an American back in the 1800's. It starts - Avoid loud and agressive persons for they are vexatiuos unto the spirit. Your most definately not. Worth reading. Keep well my friend. Regards.

I think Death Valley Days made a show about that story. Ronald Reagan was the star. Glad to see the puppys. Looks like Suzie is starting to chill a bit😊.....i commented before i watched all the video.

Yup,, Ronald Reagan played the part of George C Vest,, the one that gave the eulogy.. Did you know that only the first half of the eulogy "survived".? .. .suzy has NOT started to chill.. in fact just the opposite.. She barks before the others,, she takes off chasing before the others,, always getting the other 2 riled up.. On April 4th will be her 1 year birthday.. Hopefully you watched the entire vid.. Thanks for watching.. ..Happy Trails.!!

When I was 7 I got a dog sam later old sam. When he was about 9 months old I was at my grandparents farm for the summer. It was on a island with lots of navy people. The county had no dog pounds when sailers were deployed or transferred they would turn their dogs loose . They formed into packs and because a dangerous threat to livestock and wildlife. I found several deer heads even a bears head they had eaten the rest. Well old sam probably found a girlfriend in a pack and ran away he was gone . Summer ended as did the next no sam . My grandparents were moving to the big city and on the last day the last load of stuff Gramps was loading up sam came back. Sam had rules now . He refused to shit in the yard , he wouldn't walk on a leash he'd walk with you but put a leash on him he'd plant his butt and you could pull his head off but he wasn't moving. And a big one was no dog food. Table scraps or nothing. One day I was in the woods behind the house and a cottontail ran past me like the devil was on his ass. A few feet behind him was a white blur . It was old sam. They ran deep in the woods and a half hour or so later sam came. Back wagging his tail his muzzle was covered in blood . He had caught and ate the rabbit. That's why he wouldn't eat dog food he hunted his food. We think dogs like the free food that's why they stay with us. I'm. Old now and can say sam loved us that's why he came back. Not for the free meals . He. Was cranky too and if you set a beer down he'd steal it.imagine a cranky drunk dog that looked like a bigger version of benji that could cuss with his eyes. When I was 18 a blizzard his -96° wind-chill complete whiteout . Sam was gone after a out 12 hours I bundled up and went out I used the extension cord were used to plug the car in to get 100 feet from the house and be able to get back I yelled into the howling wind for him finally I was driven inside from the cold a few minutes later we heard him pushing against the storm door . Poor guy he looked like thing from the fantastic 4 ice balls head to toe the snow hit him melted then froze as ice in his for . It took hair dryers to thaw him. Smh what a dog

@@desertdogo When I first got Ruger out here I was very concerned about stuff that could hurt him even as far as worrying about him getting a thorn in his foot and not being able to walk.. silly me.. ..and I learned to let him be a dog and enjoy what time he has and not worry.. He has alerted me to snakes several times,, a couple times I was in la-la land, not paying attention.. Only caught glimpses of any coyotes,, but I can hear them daily..
