Sirius

This little heart breaker is Sirius. We rescued Sirius on 21/05/2014 after we found out his owner could no longer look after him. The 21/05/2014 also happened to be his first birthday and while we were initially apprehensive about taking him upon first sight, we knew if we didn't we would probably end up talking ourselves out of getting a dog altogether. 

He is a short-legged Jack Russell and is extremely intelligent, but no less daft. He has a fascination with our socks, begging us to question why we have ever spent money on toys specifially designed for dogs. 

A few facts;

1. He was called Brewster before he came to live with us

2. He celebrates the same birthday as Mike

3. He used to live with his older brother

4. My mum was initially unsupportive in my decision to get a dog, insisting that I return him

5. Sirius means "Dog Star" and is the brightest star system in the Earth's night sky. Sirius is found in constellation Canis Major (Greater Dog)

6. He is also named after Harry Potter's Godfather, Sirius Black

7. He knows how to sit, paw, lie down, high five, roll over and give kisses
