Jenn Why hasn't added a story.
Im starting a fund raiser for the vet bills for my nephews dog.
This is John Snow.
He was hit by a truck and needs a leg amputed. If we cant raise the
money he will have to be put down.
He's still young and strong
and comes from a long line of dogs bred by my sister to be guards,
companions and workmates in the interior of British Columbia.
His heritage is sled dog, wolf, German Shepard and border collie.
So he is especially suited to his environment and has great
potential.
My sister has owned and bred his line for three
generations and hoped to continue with him when.he was old enough and
finished his training but this accident has made that future uncertain.
What happened;
Around 9:30 at night our legacy dog John Snow McKay was hit in his
rear by the front of someones light colored truck. The person driving
sped away while we ran up the driveway to see what made such a
horrible sound.
It happenned on Horsefly Landing Road.
Snow is only 2 years 2 months. He is the keeper in a line of
keepers going back as long as the humans in the clan.
His grandmother Keisha(husky malamute sled dog from Faro in the
Yukon territory and his mother Ishia(wolf/husky/shepard/border collie
from central b.c.) ran over to see what happened.When I got there he
looked so much like Fritz, the patenal grandfather dog that had also
been a part of our clan that I had a weird moment of dejavu.
The great Fritz is the one that started it all, he was a huge
beautiful creature that was loyal and loving and smart. He came from a
line of Prince george cop dogs and joined our clan in 1999. He was a
good companion and a good workmate.
He patroled the horsefly property keeping away the critters
that would bother his humans in the most noble way. He gave puppies to
Kiesha three times.
Their pups got their great size and character from their father
and the smarts from their mother.
So another member entered the clan.
Boo. He was the male pup that showed the most potential from the
final litter.Chosen for his dark coloring and loving nature.
When old Fritz came to the end of his shift another trooper was needed. Thats where Ishia joined us. She was bred with Boo and their similar heritage made their puppies strong, smart, loyal and capable.
Snow was chosen for his ferocious bark and gentle soul. When the time comes he will bring even more companions to our family with yet another carefully selected female.
We are hoping to keep this tradition going for many generations to come and as any of the other families that have taken a pup from this bunch can tell you these dogs make great companions.
I'll put up more photos and add more details soon. Please feel free to ask questions and share this with any animal lovers you know.
Our family thanks all that help, read or share this and will return any kindness however we can.
