Satchel's Favorite Things

Satchel came to us liking virtually nothing.
He didn't care much for food. He HATED riding in a car - severely car sick. He was jumpy and insecure and anxious - especially about being left alone. The two things he seemed to enjoy were walks and Jason. That was it. Walks and Jason.

Now Satchel has MANY things he LOVES.
Trust me. Jason is still Number One on the list of Satchel's Favorite Things.

As soon as his beloved Jason puts on some 'landscaping clothes,' Satchel MUST go outside!
Satchel's Two Most Favorite Things: Jason and Yardwork With Jason


For the dog who is severely car sick, riding in the little dumper is just right.

For a good afternoon nap or a few hours at night, Satchel's absolute favorite location to sleep is the Massage Room!

We've noticed through the years that our Satchel enjoys the extremes.

So how does he lay in the driveway for hours and not overheat?!


Favorite Flavor: CINNAMON!

Waiting patiently for crappy Reduced Fat Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls to come out of the oven

He likes me a little bit

Willing to sit in the yard with me and Luna

While he can't stand the vibration of the engine or the movement of the car, Satchel does love to simply sit in the car in the driveway. It's the perfect spot to hang out while Jason digs in the yard!


Satchie happy in the backseat of the Saturn, but he REALLY LOVED that Jeep Wrangler!


He loves babies of any kind. Any human baby in a carrier will have wet feet...Satchel sniffs their feet until they're soaked! Canine babies are interesting and obsessed over as well.

Our little family has a Perfect Place. For us, it's Glen Arbor, Michigan. Satchel doesn't enjoy travel, but he has always loved bobbing for minnows in Lake Michigan. Isn't he beautiful?


Satchel is definitely one of our favorite things!
Can't you tell?
