Ishi Backtracks Lost Vikki
On the SBX-11A check-in tonight Bryan said it was a good run. 4 Marten and a really nice red/silver X Fox. He said lots of Wolf tracks down by Burl Creek.
Vikki asked "How did Ishi like me leaving????" "Well, I stopped for re-scenting and Ishi always jumps off and sniffs around. Well, off I went expecting her to run after. I finally looked behind and "WHAT THE HEC!!!" I sat there for 5 minutes and finally turned "Miss Piggy" around. After a bit, here she came "looking shamefaced". I think she must have run all the way down to the Beaver Ponds."
Vikki said " I knew she would be concerned, she's a working dog (Border Collie/Blue Healer) and part of the pack had gone missing." Vikki thinks she ran right down to the lake and couldn't see anything moving and then headed the 4 km back up to met Bryan. Boy, will she be tired tonight.
Ah, poor little Ishi! She was only doing what she thought she was supposed to do!
