The dog that fended off a pack of coyotes last year and was badly injured in the process has been nominated for Farm Dog of the Year.
Casper, a Great Pyrenees, spent weeks at the veterinarian and months at home in Decatur, Georgia, recovering from his injuries. One year later, 3-year-old Casper is fully healed and thriving.
