This is a quick snapshot of Fred. Fred lives with his human friend, Matt, who takes really good care of him. Fred, being very, very big, probably keeps Matt's home pretty safe. I like this shot, though Fred does look a little sad. No worries, he just had some steak that Matt had made which was quite yummy. It was so yummy that I had to have some even though my stomach was revolting because I had fed it 3+ week old mango salsa (I thought it tasted kinda tangy).
It may seem like a cliche but I truly admire the loyalty of dogs. For this loyalty, I do believe that they are one of the most noble creatures. Matt's lucky to have a friend like Fred and Fred is equally lucky to have Matt.
On top of that, Fred does a great "male California sea lion" impersonation.
