Mic, he looks like a big sweetheart.
I had a brief experience with a Saint a few years ago. His name was Barney, and he wandered up to me and hit me with his huge paw to get my attention. I couldn't imagine where he came from because there aren't many Saints in south Louisiana, but there he was. I called every vet in town, and they said they didn't have any Saints in their records, so I didn't know what to do with him. Later, a vet located the owner, so my time with Barney came to an end. When the owner pulled into our driveway, Barney was in my lap. According to the owner, who lived across a bayou several miles down the road, Barney had learned how to escape from their chain link fence, so they put up a wooden privacy fence behind it. Apparently, he figured out how to get past that too. One day, he walked several miles across town, went downtown to the post office, and climbed in a 70 year old woman's backseat like he was supposed to be there. I wonder what the woman thought about that. lol Anyway, my experience was brief, but if they're all sweet like Barney, I'd get one in a heartbeat. Of course, I'd have to put a 12 foot fence...
