A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
Went camping this weekend at a campground on the lake, had not been there for a few years. Once there I began to walk around looking at the different sites when I noticed a very old dog. He just lay t...

Now back to Levi the love sponge. Levi settled into his new home which was a place he was used to visiting so adjusting to life with the Daniels was not difficult. He loved the attention he was now getting with someone being home all day. Sue was working out of the house so she and Levi became constant companions. But the love of his life was Holly. Levi would never forget Holly nor would his love for her diminish. When the family would get together for a camping trip Levi could always be found at the McMillans hanging around Holly. Levi didn’t need a leash when he was with her because he was never more than a touch away, --always watching her every move with anticipation. The difficult time would come when the camping trip was over and the families would go their separate ways. Levi would always cry and beg to go with Holly having to be restrained from following after her.
Christmas was always spent in Greenville with the grandkids and for Levi that would be the happiest time for him. He was always in the mix no matter where the kids were making sure Holly was protected. Having lived with the McMillians for the first three years of his life and now belonging to the Daniels would create problems at times for Levi trying to figure out who his master was when he was with both families. But being the super dog he is he learned to adjust and belong to everyone.
Being with the Daniels also meant he would travel with them on camping trips and If there was a favorite place for Levi to visit it would have to be Hunting Island in South Carolina. This is a beautiful State Park right on the ocean. The beach is beautiful with its long stretches of uninterrupted sand where one can walk just as far as one can see. Then there are the hiking trails from the campground to the lighthouse that would heighten Levi’s excitement with the local deer and other wildlife in the area. Levi liked to be taken off the leash so he could run free, but never venturing too far from Mom and Dad. He would always come back to them to check and make sure all was okay. Levi learned not to chase the wildlife and was always obedient to Dad’s call to come back when called.
Being the only top dog in the family was fun for Levi as he loved all the attention he received from his Dad. Next to Holly Dad was his favorite and went with him everywhere he could. Levi never met a dog he didn’t like or any human for that matter. If ever there was a perfect dog for being sociable it was Levi so it was easy to take Levi along no matter where they were going.
