Located near the Buckeye Station historical marker on U.S. 52 along
the Ohio River.
I am a member of a K-9 Search & Rescue team (Buckeye Search
& Rescue Dogs). It has become a great passion in my life
(unlike geocaching which is considered an addiction. lol) I am
placing a series of caches to commemorate the various breeds of
search dogs we use. 
This cache is in
honor of the original “search engine”, the bloodhound. Dixie (my
bloodhound) has placed in the cache a leash, a plush dog, and other
dog related items. I have placed my usual plastic firemen. Dixie
has asked that you keep with a dog-related theme. BUT PLEASE NO
TREATS OR FOOD ITEMS. The local raccoons may try to "rescue" these
items from the cache. Bring your dog and don’t forget to sign the
logbook. Feel free to post your dog's pictures at the cache page.
*** On 12/7/03 I added a letterbox to this cache. Now you get 2 for
the price of 1. Bring ink pad. For those of you that don't
letterbox please take care not to remove the letterbox, stamp or
any of its contents. These are not trade items. Thanks.*** *** On
December 23, 2007 my search and rescue bloodhound Dixie was killed
in a house fire. She will be sadly missed by me. Dixie's breed was
the inspiration of my geocaching name. My you rest in peace Dixie.
