This dog fought me for a tree!

Let me explain that. Keeway is the name of this Black Labrador. He's no longer a puppy but has all the pep and energy of a puppy and the strength of an adult. In this picture he's digging his green tennis ball out of the snow--which he conveniently buries. Pick up a stick and he wants to wrestle you for it. And that's what happened, sort of. It was a branch from a tree that had fallen onto the path. And, as it my want, it had to be tossed off to the side. Except that Keeway, who also has a home in Vermont, saw me do this and charged and grabbed the branch. We spent 15 minutes fighting over it as he slowly broke it into a whole bunch of about foot long pieces. And that's the story of the dog who tears trees apart.
