Eric's dog Moose, In Memorium

Moose at Mt. Hood.
Moose was adpted in 2004 while Eric was a graduate student at Washington State University in Pullman, Washington. Eric lost Moose this July. Marion and Barre were taking care of Moose when we witnessed that he was under extreme distress breathing. We took him to the Vet. where we received the bad news that he had Cancer. Eric got back to Massachusetts to be with him before he was put down. Moose brought many happy times to Eric as they travelled together throughout Northern United States. Marion and Barre also enjoyed dog-sitting Moose when Eric was away at Yellowstone or the University of Michigan Biological Station.
