More: Sage is one heck of a great companion! From sharptails to ducks to couch cuddles, she does it all. She even accompanies me on my elk and deer hunting trips. I think the real key to her heart is a good throw on a tennis ball, gotta keep a few of those around for afternoon playtime. This picture was taken from the shores of Bowman Lake in Glacier National Park at the end of a perfect October day.
