Sascha, the Dog of the Day
Name: Sascha
Age: Nine years old
Gender: Female Breed: Golden Retriever
English Setter Mix
Home: Tistedal, Halden, Norway
 
   Sascha is a Golden Retriever mix and a true beauty. She's nine years old. She turned nine on 14th of September. She's a really kind and quiet dog. She loves everybody and has never done any harm to anybody. Besides, she never runs away, and always stays near us or the house although we let her walk free. Her favorite thing to do is lay on the sofa, getting scratched. She's not really into games and playing, because her hips aren't too good.

    We got a cat "Robin" one year ago. Sascha has given him a warm welcome, and has never chased him, but she chases all other cats if she gets the opportunity. But Robin lies beside her and rubs his body to hers, and she doesn't "say a word". Sascha is a very fine dog and she's also well trained. She gets the mail (the snail-mail, she hasn't learned to get the e-mail yet ) and the paper, and she'll carry just about anything, even plates, glasses, cups and lots of more. If I ask her if she wants something yummy, she'll give the darndest look. Then I say, "So, what do you do, then," she'll sit nicely down and hand out a paw. Isn't that cute?

    Last summer we decided to go for a little camping vacation with our tent. So me and my boyfriend and Sascha drove to Sweden and stayed in the tent for one and a half weeks. Sascha had never slept in a tent before, but she was still the same quiet, pleased and satisfied dog. I think she enjoyed it.
