Hello GRRF

This has taken me a long time to write this because I miss my dog so much.

But I think Calvin would like to know his name lives on.
Calvin developed cancer Jan. 2004 and died Mar. 14, 2004.

Calvin came to us Sept. 9, 2000 (his birthday age 6)... He found that two
boys playing with him to be a better life than being a show dog. His
favorite toy was any ball regardless of size. He could pick up a soccer
ball and loved playing the sport- he was a fine goalie.

Calvin was the "dancing dog" for the Golden Days function. One of his
dance partners was Fran Ulmer, and I think he stole the show from her. He loved being in the parade and doing tricks (anything for a treat).

But his very favorite thing in life was to go for that walk...even at -50
in Fairbanks. He is missed...

GRRF gave us a wonderful pet even though it was for a short time.

                        Keep up the great work.
