What a terrific name for such a handsome boy! Shanook. It just says it all. I can see that you are very beautiful, and to hear your human, you are also very independent. I remember a handsome guy named Kenai who was also very independent. You just keep those humans doing your bidding, and give them love in return. Very happy to see that beautiful face as Dog of the Day. Have a very happy afternoon harassing the cat, and get yourself a few treats and a nice swim!
