Authors Note- Mark Bennett and John Johnson were having a conversation about Keane. Mark asked Jack if he could see Keane, this is where the story begins (chapter 1).

 

 

Chapter 1- Goodbye

 

 

 

“Come on boy. Come on Keane” said Jack Johnson.

 

Keane was not happy about being woken up from his morning nap. Keane yawned and stretched his tired muscles. Groggy Keane started to follow his master around to the front of the house. It’s spring of 1919 in Koyuk, Alaska. There are only 20 houses, three stores and a church that is being built. Many folks who lived here where mostly fishermen or were helping build the church.

 

Keane’s ears move towards the sound of hammers pounding nails into the cedar wood for the church. Keane lived with is owner just outside the small town. Keane made his way towards the front of the house, the four inches of snow crushed as Keane walked. Keane rounded the house only to be surprised that some stranger was in his yard. Keane let out a growl deep within his throat.

 

“Easy boy, easy.” said his master.

 

“He certainly is big for his age.” said the stranger.

 

“Yes, yes he is.” said Johnson.

 

“He’s two years old and Siberian Husky?”

 

“Yes he is. His birthday is June 9th I believe. He’s loyal, not really interested in strangers best guard dog I’ve ever had, but once he gets to know you and knows that you pose no threat he’ll warm up to you. It’s a shame I can’t take him with me.” Johnson said sadly as he patted Keane who was now, standing beside him.

 

“Why can’t you take him with you?” said the stranger.

 

“I’m afraid where I’m going, I can’t take him with me.” Johnson said as he looked at Keane who was looking back into his master’s eyes.

 

“So that’s why I put up flyers in some of the near by towns and asked mail carriers to hand put flyers whenever they stopped in a town.” said Johnson.

 

“Why do you have to go to California?” asked the stranger.

 

Mark noticed the look of confusion on Jack’s face.

 

“Ah… the store manager at a supply store told me, when I was getting directions to your house.” explained Mark.

 

Johnson sighed.

 

“I’m having heart surgery, Mr. Bennett.”

 

“Mark.” said Mark

 

“They won’t allow me to take him with me. “Johnson said trying not to cry.

 

“Mark Bennett that’s what this strangers name is.” Keane said to himself.

 

“I don’t have any relatives, they either don’t want him or they are dead.” chuckled Johnson.

 

“Well I can assure you he’ll be in good hands. Can I pet him?” said Mark.

 

“Sure just stick your hand out to let him sniff you first.”

 

Keane sniffed Mark’s hand as he bent down it smelled like dogs. It smelled like four dogs, two male malamutes and two Siberian huskies. One of the two Siberian Huskies was female the other male. It also smelled like paper that had gotten wet from the snow.

 

“Where are the dogs?” Keane wondered as he sniffed Marks glove that was still on his hand.

 

“What’s his name again?” asked Mark.

 

“Keane, it means sharp; bold.” said Johnson with pride.

 

“He certainly is a beauty.” said Mark as he was taking his glove off.

 

Keane licked Mark’s warm hand. Mark looked up at Jack who was smiling at Keane with pride.

 

“I think I’ve seen enough. I’ll take him. How much do I owe you?” said Mark as he was getting up.

 

“Nothing my boy, nothing.” said Johnson.

 

“Surely there must be something you want for him?” said a persisted Mark.

 

“All I want is for Keane to have a good, warm home where he can live out the rest of his life happily.” said Johnson.

 

“Well at least take this.” Mark said holding out a ten-dollar bill.

 

Johnson held Mark’s hand in his and closed Mark’s hand that held the money.

 

“I’m dying son and my only wish is that Keane has a good home that it. I’ll go get his harness so you can take him with you.” Johnson said as he turned towards the cedar log cabin.

 

Mark looked down at Keane who was now beside him.

 

“Something’s not right.” Keane said as he watched his master go into the cabin.

 

“Good boy.” Jack Johnson said as he was putting Keane’s harness on.

 

Once Jack was done harnessing Keane up he knelt by his best friend.

 

“Now you be a good boy, for Mark you hear. Be a good dog.” said Jack on the
