This is Cupcake, my childhood dog. At times when life was rough, she was my savior. A Beagle German Shepard mix, she weighed 40 pounds ...small but she had a big bark.
I got her when I was 10 after many years of begging for a dog...and just before my parents got divorced. She loved to go for walks, camping, running, canoeing and skunking. Anything outdoors...except swimming. Being in the water was a terror to her. She lived to the ripe old age of 16 and even attended my wedding reception. I took this picture just before we started off on a hike. She was a little impatient to get going. "Mom, you are taking too long!" I'll always remember her.
Good dog Cuppy.
