This Siberian was by my side for almost 15 years... He adopted me while I was working on the Manhattan Bridge.... He hung around the trailers, so I put out water and food , he started staying in the yard, and sleeping under the trailers...
One day I threw him in the back of my truck and brought him to a vet to be checked out... He was healthy but filthy, no chip... Got him some shots, took him home and gave him a few baths...
After that he accompanied me almost everywhere...Whenever I brought him to Vermont in the winter... he would run around in the snow for hours..... checking in to make sure I was ok and grabbing some food, then begging to get back out in the snow...
