Please welcome our December SALT Pet of the Month, Rush! This six-year-old Collie resides with Jay Roberts, senior manager of international tax at Janus Henderson Investors, in the foothills of Denver, CO.

This curious Collie got his name from his active personality, constantly running around as a puppy. He particularly enjoys going on hikes and camping with his family and has a penchant for Milk Bones. His only pet peeve is when the trash can is rolled up the driveway. Notably, this is the only time this Rush barks.

At home, he has been known to stir up a bit of mischief. Rush is a huge foodie with a particular taste for Mexican food. One day, he found his way to a crockpot full of red chile beef when Jay was running an errand. When Jay returned, he discovered that Rush had eaten roughly three pounds of meat! As you can guess, Rush had quite a tummy ache, and Jay had to quickly come up with another plan for dinner. As for Rush, he would do it all over again, every single day of the week.

We are pawsitively thrilled for Rush to join the SALT Pet of the Month family!
