"He took my heart and ran with it
and I hope he's running still
fast and strong
a piece of my heart bound up with his
forever."
- Patricia McConnell, For The Love of A Dog
"Pepper"
May 11, 1992 - September 18, 2005
Najaco's Northeast Storm, "Pepper", was my first dog. We named her after the spice black pepper. She was a great dog. Although she was a labrador, she did not like the water! She liked to snuggle, play, and be around her people. She was a sweet, gentle dog that enjoyed life- whether it be going for a walk on the beach, getting chased by a group of young kids for "stealing" one of their toys, or lounging on the couch.
