Today, my parents said farewell to a long-time family member of the four-footed variety. They rescued Sieger from the pound in 1996 when they were stationed in Hawaii. He was about 4 years old, and wild. My Dad's firm hand and obedience training turned him into a loving, sweet, and obedient guy.
In his younger years, he chased Frisbees until your arm would give out. We'd take him to the beach and play fetch-the-stick in the waves; I distinctly remember nearly falling on my behind in the sand with laughter as he dragged a huge piece of driftwood back instead.
From Hawaii to Missouri to Texas, Sieger made every move with my parents in the last dozen years. He lived a long life full of love. He will be missed.
