Bark-seat driver

Thursday, August 23, 2007

Mitzi hangs out the passenger window of Brad Carlson's truck as he drives through McCook recently. Carlson, of Holbrook, said the 13-year-old Bichon "travels everywhere -- coast-to-coast, and everywhere in-between." Carlson said the little dog often attracts attention, especially from little kids, whom he notices waving and pointing at her as they drive by. He said Mitzi was originally his folks' little house dog, but she adapted easily to a truck-driver's life after Brad's dad passed away, and Brad "inherited" the fuzzy little creature. "She's a good rider," he said. "She loves to ride."
