In today’s edition of “Cartoon Alter Ego”, I am writing about Brutus, although it is difficult.  As most of you know, Brutus was a Frosty Meadow Favorite.  We’ve mentioned many times that almost everyone who came to the farm remarked on how beautiful and friendly he was.  Multiple times, when puppy buyers would come to pick out their puppy, they would see Brutus and ask if they could just buy him instead.  Of course the answer was always NO!!

Brutus was a very loving and even tempered Husky.  He was a gentle giant.  He was our only Husky to eclipse the 70 lb. mark.  Brutus truly craved the human touch.  Many times, he preferred to just sit next to us and watch the others play. 

As most of you know, Brutus passed away last November, due to a digestive tract failure.  He is greatly missed.

Brutus’ Cartoon Alter Ego is Baloo, the big, friendly bear from “The Jungle Book”.  In the movie, Baloo befriends Mowgli the orphan boy, and shows him how to live a care free life.  In the end, Baloo knows it’s best to return Mowgli to the man-village, and Mowgli has a very hard time saying goodbye. 

It was very hard to say goodbye to Brutus.  He is gone in body, but never in spirit.  He is still the face of Frosty Meadow Farms, and appears at the top of every page of this website along with Holly.  His face is also the profile picture of the Frosty Meadow Farms page on Facebook.
