Canem Caudis (Doggy Tails)

 Top Dog

A stray dog which had been tracking some mountain climbers in Nepal, and had refused to be shooed away by the Sherpas, ended up making it to the top of the 23,000ft mountain the Baruntse. The Sherpas thought that this was so auspicious that one adopted the cross breed (sheep dog and mastiff), and named her 'Baru'. 

Baru - A True Mountain Dog

To be fair Baru had to be helped for some parts of the climb, and was strapped to climbers for those parts of the climb. She had originally latched on to climb team leader Don Wargowsky from Seattle USA. Its believed to be a record climb for a dog.
