Description
"The dog was called Tossan, remember him well. He followed Gunnar wherever he went. If he wasn't allowed to come along, he sat in the kitchen window (at the time) and looked out at the bay, Strandviken. What was incredible - he knew when the right boat with the master came back. Whether he recognized it by the sound of the engine or saw the boat, I do not know. The distance was still quite far.
Then he ran down to the boathouse and waited until his master came. Gunnar always left the boathouse door open when he left."
(Mikael Syrjälä, nephew)
