Barkley had his Best Day Ever and his Worst Day Ever all on the same day right here. On a warm spring day, he fulfilled his life's ambition by catching a foolish young squirrel. In a split second, years of training with rope bones and fleecy toys were put into action, making it a really bad day for the squirrel. Flush with his exertions and feeling oh-so-proud of himself, Barkley waded into the rushing waters of Goose Creek for a nice swim and a drink. As he paddled and slurped, the rapids whisked the squirrel away. Despite a determined search of both banks below the site of the tragedy, Barkley's trophy was gone forever. It was a crestfallen golden retriever who accompanied me home that day.
Swag is intended for the first dog to find the cache.
