More: Cora has been a loyal part of our family for 12 years. She protects our house, our kids and runs the other dogs like a Captain. She was the best hunting dog until her Dad passed away about 6 years ago. Overnight she turned grey and quit hunting... she just couldn't seem to find her joy without her dad. She is happiest in the snow or in the water and when we turn her loose in those environments she believes she is young again.
