I stopped for the night at one of my favorite state forest campgrounds on the Au Sable River near Grayling. When I went down to the canoe landing to wade in the water, I met a new friend---Sadie, the mighty minnow hunting dog! Her owner and I watched for over forty-five minutes as she stalked and attempted to catch the tiny fish. She never became discouraged, only stopping from time to time to visit with us and shake her wet coat. Although a determined hunter, she never caught a minnow. But, she managed to keep her back dry during all of her diving---a truly magnificent feat!
