Well…the four are searching… wearing booties to protect their paws from 80 degree ground temperatures, hundreds of thousands of coconut crabs and sharp volcanic rock fragments. Sound like fun? Yeah, these well-trained dogs are doing their job and going for the find of their dog lives.
These dogs can hunt! Seriously…hoping they find the remaining bones of Amelia so we can put her to rest in our hearts and minds…that would be a golden moment for all.
My golden retriever heart has heaps of pride for the coming Memorial Day. American flags are already flying in my neighborhood…the red, white and blue will wave in the breeze throughout my community…store fronts, restaurants, gas stations…lining the avenues and streets with the “stars and stripes.”
Arlington National Cemetery has already put “Flags In” honoring America’s fallen heroes. Since 1948, The Old Guard has placed American flags at gravesites…this year more than 228,000 flags.
This is quite a sight to see…I am told. Yeah, I can’t go there…but I understand..
only service dogs are permitted and yes…I will respect and honor these rules. It’s my way of showing my respect to our honored fallen heroes. Paws up with gratitude for those who gave it all to keep us safe and free.
On a super hot day at the ballpark, keeping us safe.
