Adopted 5/2007 to a wonderful woman in Seattle

5/25/07 "I think I decided to name him Vino. My friends and I love to go wine tasting and for some reason that name just fits him.

Thank you again for everything. This was a perfect fit. We have a yellow lab next door and a Irish Setter on the other side, he has met both and loves playing with them. He is just wonderful. Such a good dog. Left him alone for the first time today while I went to visit some clients and he did not do a darn thing wrong. Just waited for me. He is taking 3 miles walks with me every morning and about half of that at night."

6/3/07 "Yes, I did change his name to Vino. He already comes to it. He does love the water. I take him to this dog park and he runs like mad and out in the water he goes, he swam for a good 45 minutes yesterday. Still such a good dog. Does not like it when I leave. He gets so upset and watches out the window. I try and take him as much as possible. I attached some photos. I get the nicest compliments on him. Everyone cannot believe how well behaved he is and how beautiful he is."
