Love the idea of this TB! Just before deployment, my old mutt of almost 15 years passed. He was a Choco-Lab/Pointer mix that followed me everywhere. He's lived in CA(x2), MD, ME, FL, NY and WA and travelled every state in between. He's been with me rock climbing, surfing (actually on the board), backpacking, kayaking, white-water rafting, and flying in a C-121 Super Constellation. What a life!
He will be travelling with me in a week to mark his territory on Whidbey Island, WA.
My new Yellow-Lab and I will place him in one of at least 3 local dog-related caches so he can mark it.
