What idiots take their dogs up on that mountain in the middle of a snowstorm?? Typical braindead public school teachers. Wonder if it pulled them off the mountain?

Pray for W and Our Troops

Gubele described the trio as "experienced rock climbers, but not necessarily experienced in mountain climbing."

Get some experience in the summer before you tackle a high mountain in the winter, idiots.

Think of the joy you feel when you come home to your dog.

Imagine thinking you're going to freeze and starve to death and seeing a dog come to rescue you, even better than seeing a human, you know you've been saved and you get immediate love, warmth and happiness.

Now that they are all safe and sound, is it OK to make jokes about them being "clymers"?

'"The dog probably saved their lives" by lying across them during the cold night'


I don't think this qualifies as really hero-dog in any way.

I think they know it because hardly any of the article was devoted to the dog. It was largely a story of the rescue, period.

As my dog frequently barks - Don't leave me behind.
