The Smile of a Happy Dog

Mark and Suuki

Even dogs smile as you can see in this picture of our son, Mark, and our grand dog, Suuki. They let me take their picture when they stopped by in October 2014.  You can see her smile and the strength in her legs as she braces herself against Mark's knees.

Suuki is a rescue dog and is still shy around others even though she has been in our family for several years. She loves to ride in the car and stand on her hind legs and look out the window.

She loves to go hiking in the mountains. Even though she is a small dog, she has no trouble hiking up mountain trails. She loves to go in the water when she is near the stream because her little belly gets hot and the water cools her.

Her Grandpa calls her the "Great Suuk."
