That is one fine looking pooch. Any idea what kind of dog it is? An english Mutt or an actual breed?

Great pics. Thanks!

That's cool that the flight surgeon adopted it when Parker got killed. I've often wondered what happened to the mascots when bad stuff like that happened. Probably lots of orphaned mascots in the countryside, huh? :cry:
