The Lodge at Real Life, MT.

Come visit where the air and water is clean and the people are real. As your inn keeper I confess that I have more than my share of opinions on absolutely everything. I'm also chock full of advice and ready to give it at every opportunity - asked for or not. You'll also find the entries from my old blog here: An Animal Shelter - Everyday Stories. These were stories about a typical animal shelter in Montana. It ended when my relationship with the local animal shelter ended - badly.

A Dog Well Traveled

I recently ran across a happy story about one of our former residents. Boy does he get around. Here's his story according to his owner (who I hope won't mind since it's on another web page) Sadly, my dog Butch was killed at an interstate rest area near Craig,MT as we were coming home from Alaska in Oct 2000. I was so depressed about what had happened and couldn`t face the long drive home alone, so I adopted him (details deleted- a humane society in MT). Dear Butch was cremated at this shelter." Now it appears that this dog lives a wonderful life of hiking and camping all over the United States. This is one lucky pup and clearly has a devoted owner. It doesn't take a continent to make the rest of our dogs happy though - just a home, a yard and a heart big enough for two.
