Ben Romig of Cooper Landing shared this photo of Fancy, his companion of seven full winters. Romig writes, "The nice lady at the animal shelter in Kenai hand-picked Fancy for my family at the time. Fancy is on my side almost always. We were out listening to wolves yesterday; I believe they were trying to lure her into the woods where we were, but I've actually had to run the wolves or coyotes off of other dogs I've taken on walks up Snug Harbor Road in the years past. It is a trick they have learned through generations of litters."
