Remembering Kratos and Anneika

It has been a week since Kratos and Anneika disappeared.   I still look around hoping to see them come wagging out of the brush, but at this point I think it unlikely.   I am sure that if they were able to come back, they would. 

We have been having trouble with coyotes lately, in particular, trouble with a black coyote.  They tend to be loners, not part of the packs that for the most part respect the territory of our dogs and stay away.   There was a lot of barking and howling that night, I  believe Kratos and Anneika chased after the coyote, or coyotes, and ran into trouble somehow.  Searches have been unsuccessful. 

They were two of our best guardian dogs and dog friends.  Kratos  and Anneika are sorely missed and well remembered.
