This is Smokey. He is a 12 year old Pomerian/Cocker spaniel who owns Julie. Julie writes, “we’ve had Smokey since he was really small. He has always looked like a puppy. We used to take him through the Ballard Locks on our boat and everyone would say, “OH LOOK AT THE PUPPY!” and take many pictures of him on the bow of our boat with his yellow life jacket on…..
He is a great family dog and getting old. Just recently he started loosing his hearing. It is very sad. My daughter is going off to college and will miss him every day. He has always been a big part of our family.”
