Maggie, the Well-traveled Dog

By Queuebot in Animal, Travel & Places on Nov 10, 2009 at 12:10 pm


Maggie the dog had a passport that would make most jet setters jealous, and over the course of her life she has crossed borders, braved wars, and experienced the world. Maggie managed to make friends on both sides of the conflict, with all walks of life, proving the old adage that dogs are  man’s best friend. Enjoy this tribute to a dog’s life well lived.

She was born on Cape Cod and came of age in Boston. But she lived in Jerusalem and walked the ancient, cobbled streets of the Old City where she begged on both sides of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. She swam in the Sea of Galilee and climbed the Mount of Olives and crossed the Allenby Bridge at the Jordan River. She lived for a while on the rugged coast of Brittany in France and eventually crossed over by ferry, past the White Cliffs of Dover to arrive in London where she spent many long afternoons in a great, old pub.

    Most of the dogs I meet just want to lie down somewhere. :^P

    So she's traveled the entire world AND she's a dog? Wow, that's pretty much the luckiest creature who ever lived.
