Happy birthday Satori Mariano Cohn . Our baby dog turns 5 years old tonight. Diane fixed a special scrambled egg and cheese birthday dinner for Satori and big sister Chai who’s 9.

I remember the day we drove up to the vt-canada border near newport to pick out a younger sister for chai. She was the smallest labradoodle of the litter.. And she came up to gabe… We knew she was the one.

It funny to think. Of her as a grown up dog.. shes still so much like a puppy. she is the sweetest dog.. she always wants to please us.. she always wants to play. shes so loyal, too. she will stand or sit at our feet just staring at us until we start to play. When we’re out in the woods running, skiing or snowshoeing, satori will stay right at our heels as big sister chai (who’s 9) wanders all over the place. Shes my alarm dog, too. Every morning she comes and puts her muzzle on the bed and stares at me until i wake up…
She has a cute way of smiling that to those who don’t know her might look like a snarl.. But shes no snarler.. Shes actually quite shy of strangers.. And other dogs…. She almost never barks

Here calm expression and dark black eyes make it impossible to know what she’s thinking.. Sometimes we just stare at each other trying to read one another’s mind.. One thing i can read is that she loves us…

I know she knows we love her too !

Happy birthday girl
Nite all, nite sam
