Hero dog collar up for auction; what a story!
I waaaaant it!!!

Wow -- neat story, beautiful artifact.

A quick search brings up a museum site on the Wreck of the Ethie, a National Geographic piece on Newfoundlands (they say his name was Tang), this poem, and a kids' fiction book. I'd never heard this story before - thanks.

What a cool find! Newfoundlands are something else, I've always wanted one. This should be in some sort of museum.

It should. When I was at the Seaport we did an exhibit called "Sea Dogs," and this wouldv'e been a perfect item to show. Guess we missed the boat on that one...

*haha! I pun!*
