Satine, the Dog of the Day
Name: Satine
Age: Three and a half years old
Gender: Female Breed: Flat-Coated Retriever
Home: Johannesburg, South Africa
 
   Satine comes from France, as we do. She's a happy living girl, always in a good mood (Flats are known to be called "wagging tails"). She knows that she is the only interesting dog in the world and can become jealous if we pay attention to the cat too much. But she's never aggressive and responds very well to anything we ask from her. When she plays ball, she doesn't give it back but pulls back, lays down and pushes the ball with her nose. On Fridays she can sleep in her masters' bedroom, and I don't know how she always know when it's the right day!

    A year ago, our little kitten came in, and she truly adopted her as her own as soon as she understood that it was not a new chewing toy. When the cat scratches furniture, Satine rushes to stop her (which we appreciate a lot). Now that our cat is grown up, when Satine hears on TV a kitten miaowing, she'll run everywhere to find it.

    She can't live without hugs and kisses: she needs at least fifty of each per day! Such a wonderful dog... It's a breed we could recommend to anyone!
