Mickey, our 16.5 year old Siberian husky, crossed the rainbow bridge peacefully at home in July 2021. Mickey lived in Marin and Healdsburg and enjoyed so many of the DogTrekker recommendations. She loved her daily hikes and was an excellent traveller to many California destinations recommended by Kayla and her pals.
