What an incredible story.
The dog is pretty thin and hope she makes a complete recovery.

I guess he died doing what he loved to do, but I wouldn’t want my dog to suffer for it.

Jack Russells are good hunters of small game.

Sad story. Reminds me of Greyfriars Bobby.

What should he do? Not hike alone? If you fall a significant distance, a companion won’t help you. If you have a heart attack out on the trail, a companion won’t help you. One of the reasons people like to go out in the mountains and hike is for solitude. To get away from the constant jibber jabber, to have to make every decision jointly. Are you ready to sit down for a few minutes? Should we camp here or over there? Am I walking a little too fast, or a little too slow,? There’s nothing wrong with wanting to hike alone,

In an interview with The Denver Gazette, she (Richard's wife of 34 years) said: 'I'm just grateful that she was with him. Rich did not want to get old. He wanted to climb mountains until he couldn't, so here we are.' Amen. God bless you, brother

It’s difficult for small game to hide from a Jack Russell Terrier.. Their sense of smell is incredible!

The story brought tears to both the wife and I. Dogs are special, and this one was very, very special. As lonely as it will be, my prayers are to outlive both my wife and my dog. I want to be there for them for everything.

I knew a guy who had cardiac arrest in his recliner in front of the TV. When they found him Oprah was on. I’d say this guy had the better of it. Should have let someone know where he was going in a bit better detail though.

Should you be allowed to post on FR?
Just saying.

Good on this guy for enjoying life. Too bad it made his dog suffer for a time, but he came thru too.
