Sophie Tucker, once again living the life of luxury.
OK OK. I know this isn’t the most important story to be talking about.
But as a guy from a family that once lost an amazing pet dog to some very unfortunate circumstances (we miss ya, Sam), I gotta comment on how cool Sophie Tucker’s story is.
After falling off a sailboat near the coast of Australia during a storm, the Australian cattle dog swam five nautical miles to St. Bees Island, where she managed to survive for four months before being reunited with her owners.
The story of her survival isn’t quite as charming.
[Owner Jan] Griffith said that when the dog was first spotted on the island she had been in poor condition.
“And then all of a sudden she started to look good and it was when the rangers had found baby goat carcasses so she’d started eating baby goats,” she said.
Yum.

So, inquiring minds need to know what happened to Sam! I’m finding your filesharing posts particularly interesting. I’m learning a lot about something I don’t know much about is why. Great to come to a blog and learn new things…
