Tribute video to Schoep and John Unger Tribute

Tribute video to Schoep and John Unger will melt your heart

August 5, 2013

Schoep, the dog made famous on the Internet for this touching photo, has died at 20 years old.

Schoep and his owner John Unger made headlines last summer when local photographer Hannah Stonehouse Hudson snapped a photo of Unger and his pup wading together in Lake Superior. Unger would regularly take Schoep into the water because it was therapeutic for his arthritic body.

One YouTube user, Jennifer Wallick, has put together a moving tribute to Schoep and Unger using photos from their Facebook page. She framed the video, entitled "To Dad With Love, Schoep," as a message from the dog to his owner, thanking him for the many years he spent caring for him.
