Silas, the Dog of the Day
Name: Silas
Age: Nine months old
Gender: Male Breed: Red Bone Coon Hound
Home: Calgary, Alberta, Canada
 
   Silas is an amazing dog. He is such a character. He is a unique dog for these parts and gets a lot of attention. But what makes him so special is how much he loves us. When I drop off the kids at school in the morning he cries and whimpers when I leave them at school and drive away. He always needs to know where we are. He travels from room to room to check on all of us when we are home. He starts to get excited when he realizes the kids are going to be home soon. He loves each of us equally and so much. He has some health problems and a lot of our friends and family think we are crazy to keep him around and pay the bills - they just don't get it. He is such a great friend! We don't care that we have to hide all the shoes and stuffed animals. We don't care that we can't leave anything on the kitchen counters. We just care that he is here and a part of our family.
