“Beck” was my Baby Sister. She was 12 years younger. I worked in Dad’s store or did something at school most of my time so I pnly saw her at the supper table most of the the time until I went away to college. I remember coming home for a weekend and she wanted a dog, so, when I happened to run across a black pup I took it to her. It was her first dog! Somewhere around 40 years later Beck was visiting while I was recuperating from a brain tumor operation. We were walking around the block when a local kid came bouncing up to the fence around his house followed by two black puppies that he was trying to give away. Beck insisted that I needed one and I should name him Rally as he would rally my spirits. I liked the name because I loved rallying and racing cars in my younger days. The kid heard this and suggested the name Skidmark because the dog was black. And,so, Beck brought what turned out to be a BIG, Black, Weimaraner/Labrador mixed dog named Rally Skidmark into my life. He was my best friend for years…. Thanks, Baby Sister❤️❤️❤️
