The Fearless Dog



May 19th, 1805

They say that a dog is a man’s best friend. Captain Lewis’s dog has been the best. He stands up to Grizzlies, Wolves and Big Cats…and even a Beaver. Jumping in the water to retrieve that beaver was helpful to us (since Cruzette didn’t quite get him), but was not helpful to the captain’s ‘ole dog. Right when Seaman grabbed the beaver’s leg, the beaver went under water and bit Seaman’s leg good – severing an artery! We nursed him back to health – I’m sure glad he’s still with us.
