The Best Dog in the World!


I know that anyone who knows me will not be surprised to hear that I LOVE my Sasha dog! She is the best dog! Sasha is a Labrador Retriever crossed with we have no idea what and we also have no clue as to her age. She is a really big girl at 96 lbs. We got Sasha from the Second Chance Animal Rescue Society (www.scars.org) in November 2005 and can hardly remember what life was like before her!

She is such a patient girl with Kellan, it is amazing! The other day Kellan had a hold of her lip and she just looked at him like what are you doing but didn’t snap or growl at him. Sasha also quite often lets Kellan kick her, usually in the head. Kellan loves his Sasha dog too. He will quite often just look at her and smile.

Don’t get me wrong she does have her faults – if we tried harder I think we could probably break her of most of them. Sasha is fearless when it comes to meeting new people and dogs, she hasn’t met anyone that she doesn’t consider her friend. I know that probably doesn’t sound like a bad thing but trust me not everyone loves her as much as she loves them. She also loves to chew on pretty much anything. We were slow learners when we first got her and had to replace many a pair of shoelaces for not just ourselves and our friends and family before we learned to keep the shoes where she couldn’t get at them. She also enjoys eating Celena's bras and will now give Kellan's clothes a "pre-treatment."

The morale of this blog is that if you don't have a dog - go get one it will enrich your life in ways you can't even imagine!
