About This Item

This Travel Bug is a memorial to our beloved dog, Boots, who died in September of 2003 at the age of 13. Winky Winky was her nickname and she enjoyed running about in the tall grass. As she got older, she helped my Mom create a friendly home for foster dogs who had been abandonned or abused.

    Found this at Pearson Park and since I am a dog lover though it would love a trip to the hills of West Virginia. My dog Sampson has been with me over 10 years and loves to go Geocaching with me so we will make sure we put winky in a fun spot to visit!

    • Sampson loves to Geocache!
