I meant to do this summary at the end of the "My Pack" series. I never got around to it. So, here it is, several weeks later. Better late than never, right?
I'm going to select a few photos of each of my pack members throughout my life to include in this summary.
Tiger – We had him from around March 1979 to July 10, 1991. Tiger was full-grown when he came to our house as a stray. Probably born around 1977 or 1978. My childhood dog. We think Tiger was a Collie/Australian Shepherd mix.

Licorice – We only had her for a week or two. May 1984. Orem, Utah. Terrier mix?

Duke and Panda – Australian shepherds. (1991 - 2003/2004). The only dogs we bought from a breeder. We got them after Tiger died in 1991. They are from the same litter.
Duke – 1991-2003
Panda – 1991-2004
Suzy Q – Another stray that appeared on the doorstep at 192 in Orem, Utah. We had her from around 1994- 2003. Terrier mix?

Samson – Great Pyrenees. (2003-2016). We got Samson from the Humane Society after Panda died in 2004. I had always wanted a Great Pyrenees. He was my dream dog. My favorite!

Abinadi – Bloodhound. (2012-2019) We got Abinadi in the spring of 2013. He was another stray who chose us for his pack. Like Samson, he was nine months old when we got him. He and Samson got along well. Samson was about 10 when we got Abinadi so he taught Abinadi how to be a good dog. Samson taught Abinadi how to guard. It was fun to see them guarding the property together.

Chief – Siberian Husky/Catahoula leopard dog. (1/1/2019-living). Chief isn't my dog but he is definitely part of my pack. Chief is Lisa's dog. He's been a part of my pack since Dad died and Lisa and Rex moved in, summer 2019.

Rose – German Shepherd. (2019-living). Richie's dog. Part of my pack since last summer (2021). Chief and Rose like to go to the dog tree with me. They are both sweet dogs.

For a more thorough description of each pack member through the years, go back to December 2021 and January 2022 individual posts.
I hope you enjoyed the journey of my pack through the years. I am certainly grateful for each and every pack member I've had in my life through the years. Dogs are certainly man's best friend!
That's my two cents.
Cute pictures! Dogs are the best.
