Daniel Levine/Special to the Daily
Daniel Levine has lived in the Vail area for over 11 years. And while he has been an employee at many local organizations and businesses over the years working everywhere from the Four Seasons and the town of Vail to working at golf courses and as a ski instructor at both Vail and Copper he is better known as the companion of his 10-year old, 100-pound German Shepherd, Blaze.
“He’s my whole identity,” Levine said. “He’s just a magical, mystical creature.”
Which is why, when Blaze tore his ACL quickly and unexpectedly on May 5 while playing fetch, Levine decided at the encouragement of some friends to start a GoFundMe page to raise money for the cost of his surgery.
