RedactedNarrative: On June 8, 2021 at approximately 1250 hrs, operator, her boyfriend, and their border collie mix were paddling down the South Fork of the Shenandoah River in Page County. 
  
  They were in a 17 ft canoe rented from Downriver Canoe company of Bentonville, VA. The pair had been dropped off by the canoe company and entered the river near MM 21 about 10 minutes prior to this incident. The pair had to get out and drag the canoe over and around rocks due to low water. They were wearing their PFDs when they left the shore but took them off before the incident occurred. 
  
  While they were paddling, the dog was hyper and trying to bite the water. This caused Operator to hold the dog while she sat in the stern of the canoe. Occupant was left to paddle the canoe from the bow and was unable to keep it from going sideways down the river. While floating downstream sideways, they struck a large rock that was sticking out of the water. 
  
  This caused the starboard side of canoe to ride up on the rock and take on water over the port side. It did not capsize at that moment but Operator got out of the canoe and immediately after cut her left knee on something under the water as the canoe turned over. 
  
  She was in about 2 feet of fast moving water at this time. They walked to shore and were helped by another group of paddlers in canoe rentals from the Downriver Canoe Company. Occupant stubbed his toe on something during this incident but was not treated by medical staff. 
  
  No one else was involved or injured. Neither party had any prior experience on paddle craft. The canoe involved was recovered by the Downriver Canoe Company with minor damage to the gunwales.
