Hello, you Amazing  Patreons! 

I hope you haven't missed our short on Greyfriar Bobby! This is the very first in our sponsored mini-series on "DOGS in HISTORY"

The second is right here for your Patreon eyes only! ---> Boy! A Real-Life Hellhound? and we're gonna have two more of the bestest bois coming out over the next few weeks. 

We're so happy to have the opportunity to do this series because 1.) it's uber cute! And 2.) animals making history is such an interesting topic. There are carrier pigeons that acted as messengers during the war, pigs that were used to colonize countries, and emus that waged their own war on humanity.  Animals are such a huge part of our daily life and it's amazing to be able to highlight their own accomplishments in history! Enjoy!

Listen to the song "The Ballad of Greyfriars Bobby" by the Real McKenzies.

There are so many good doggos in history, but one is a staple for Montana (the state known for some very significant figures, including the famous stunt devil Evel Knievel and African-American postwoman Mary 'Stagecoach' Fields, the latter of which had a reputation so great that outlaws tended to stay the hell away from her coach): Shep. A sheepherder -whose name is literally lost to time- was sent back east to his family. For five and a half years, he stayed at the station, meeting every passenger train, waiting for his master, not knowing that he was dead. Everyone tried to adopt him, but he wouldn't budge. He was already old when his owner died, and by the time he passed on, he was arthritic, half-blind, and half-deaf, and got hit by an oncoming train. Then there is the entire team of the famous Alaskan Serum Run of 1925. There were several sled teams in that run, Togo and Balto being the most famous. However, one team was SLASHED by the horrific temperatures on their leg of the run, the sled driver of one lost his lead dogs despite trying to save them in waist-deep snow (the man tried to lead his team while he turned his dying dogs into dog-burritos, so they didn't freeze to death), Togo now has his own movie and had the longest leg of the run, and Balto's leg was longer than average (the average was 30 miles, Balto's run was 110) and was done entirely at night.

Rocky the cat is still a bit miffed you have done no videos on historic contributions by felines.
