The Rest of the Sal Story

What is the rest of the story on Sal?

He is one cool dude!

I come from a family of dog lovers and Sal is the most recent addition to our 4legged family.

My not so little anymore little brother and my lovely sister-in-law decided it was time for their shepherd mix, Suzy, to get a pal. That pal turned out to be an 18 month old Husky Shepherd cross named Sal.

Magnus and I got to spend a warm day of zooming, swimming, training and hanging out with Sal, Suzy and the family.

First I met Sal and watched his fancy tricks.

We went to the park so we were on “neutral ground” so Magnus could meet the big dogs.

"Com'on Suzy lets play!"

It was a great park next to the river so there was plenty of room for zoomies.

"You guys might be big, but I'm Magnus The Magnificent!"

Sal and Magnus made a great pair. Sal’s a big boy who thinks he’s little and Magnus is a little boy who’s sure he’s ginormous. Even so, there was some fun Magnus was just too little join.

"Hey little dude, wanna go swimmin' with the big dogs?"

"Wait for me! I want to come too!"

"Just try to catch me!"

It was a joy to watch my little brother and sister-in-law work these big beautiful dogs. I miss my Big Girl so much, so I have to live vicariously through these big, beautiful 4legged friends.

Magnus got to practice posing for the camera. His attention span is so short he’s good for about three shots before he starts giving me the, “please don’t make me sit and wait anymore” look. Even so I was thrilled with some of the shots I got of all the dogs.

"Don't I look like a real field spaniel?"

At the end of the day we were both dirty and tired. Which made this measure up as one of  Magnus’ most perfect days.
