Great story. Thanks. That look on her face says so many things.

They talk about the loneliness on the trail. I just can’t see it. Not if you have your team with you. I believe I’d consider it more like serenity. There would always be plenty to do.

Gastric dilatation and volvulus is a serious emergency situation. I've literally had dogs die in my arms trying to pass a stomach tube in them first. I've saved a few by using an 18 gage catheter into the stomach to relieve the pressure and gas and then getting them to a surgeon ASAP. At a university where I was working we saw as many as four in one night. Even if one gets to surgery the complications can be monumental, especially if part of the stomach or the spleen have lost its circulation. This was a good ending because it takes a talented surgeon and excellent anesthesia to replace the stomach back into its proper place and tack it to the body wall.
