Continued... High speed chases and high flying jumps were a part of the imagination reel. Yet the journey wouldn't be complete without, Flash, the slow paced Basset Hound. He was Rosco's loyal companion but the true beauty of Flash was the fact that she hated Boss Hogg and loved the Dukes. Aren't all dogs loyal? There is something unique about their loyalty, affection and love towards humans.
Getting back to my own dogs I remember the loyalty of my trusty Daisy. She was loyal to our family as well as to Bo. You see one night while we were asleep something happened to Bo. We never knew exactly what happened but he never came home. Daisy was never the same after that night and it seemed as if she had a longing for her buddy Bo. After that night she was terrified of thunder and fireworks and we often wondered if Bo had been shot in one of their action packed "adventures of The Dukes of Hazzard." Although she lost her closest companion she didn't lose her loyalty. Her loyalty simply shifted from Bo to our family and specifically to us kids. That loyalty continued with her to the very end of her life and she could be found faithfully by my side.
Growing up in a small town I would travel from one end of town to the other on my favorite bicycle. Those bike rides were my own daily adventures and I would often have my faithful side kick, Daisy. Being a Border Collie she would run for miles without stopping. I would ride and she was always close behind. Whenever we would encounter a stray she would be quick to defend me and she was fearless. To be continued...
So Long for Now,
