Meet Tessa, the cuddly Shih Tzu of Sutherland SALT’s Tim Gustafson and his wife, Emily. Twelve-year-old Tessa has lived quite an exciting life. After whisking her (and Tim’s wife, to whom Tessa belonged) away from Bakersfield, California, Tim smuggled the pup – ironically – into Amsterdam and transported her to the southernmost part of the Kingdom
SALT Pet(s) of the Month: Max and Elphie
Meet Maximus (Max, pictured below) and Elphaba (Elphie, pictured here with Jack), the lovable cats of Sutherland SALT’s Jack Trachtenberg.
Max likes to think that his size makes him tough, as he walks around like the tough cat in the house, but as soon as visitors come to the door, he scrambles for cover
SALT Pet of the Month: Cooper
Meet Cooper, the three-year-old Labradoodle of Washington, D.C. SALT Partner Todd Lard and his partner, Brian.

SALT Pet(s) of the Month: Abby and Olive
Meet Abby and Olive, the adorable Boston Terrier “children” of Sutherland SALT administrative assistant Stephanie Fulps and her husband, Jason.

SALT Pet of the Month: Chloe
Meet Chloe, the yellow Labrador Retriever of Atlanta’s newest Sutherland SALT associate, Suzanne Palms, and her boyfriend, Jeremiah. Suzanne, a self-proclaimed neat freak, was never a dog person, having grown up with outdoor cats. However, her desire for a furry companion outweighed her love of a spotless space after befriending her law school roommate’s black
SALT Pet of the Month: Dom
Meet Dom, the newest rescue pet of Sacramento partner Carley Roberts and her husband, Jeremy. You may remember the Roberts’ other pets, which were featured as Pet of the Month in March and in our April Fool’s edition of the SALT Shaker.
Carley recently was heading home from work late in the evening, and as she entered the freeway, she came upon a large, Pit Bull-ish looking dog running at top speed in the lanes of traffic. Cars were whizzing by him without a care, so Carley rolled down her window, pulled to the side of him, and began talking to the clearly scared pup, hoping he might slow his stride. As the dog, who is now known as Dom, began slowing down, Carley swerved to protect him as another car impatiently tried to cut around her. She then drove ahead of Dom, continuing to swerve back and forth until all traffic was at a standstill. Once at a stop in the road, Carley opened her doors and encouraged Dom to hop in. As he approached, he stopped about 10 feet in front of her, lowered his head, and stared, showing no trace of emotion. Now eye-to-eye with what was clearly a 100-plus pound Pit Bull, for a split second Carley questioned the wisdom of her judgment, but knew she was doing the right thing and continued to sweetly encourage Dom to jump in her car. Thankfully he did, hopping into the driver’s seat and then into the backseat. Continue Reading SALT Pet of the Month: Dom
SALT Pet of the Month: Precious (a/k/a Ms. P)
Meet Precious Mackey (a/k/a Ms. P), who weighs in at 14 pounds of pure cattitude! Precious is not so fond of humans, having little use for anyone except her owner, Washington SALT secretary extraordinaire Kerrie Mackey, who is allowed to feed, brush, and occasionally rub Ms. P’s ears. But do not even think about carrying
SALT Pet of the Month: Dolce

SALT Pet of the Month: Biscuit
Meet Biscuit, the seven-year-old ruby nose beagle (also known as a lemon beagle) of GenOn Energy Tax Manager Lucy Lunt. Although you might not believe it from the looks of her photos, Biscuit loves going for walks and tracking rabbits—although 
she would have no idea what to do with a rabbit if she ever actually caught one. A true couch potato
SALT Pet(s) of the Month: Calvin and Maggie
Meet Calvin and Maggie, the playful new kittens of Sutherland Client & Practice Development Manager Katie O’Brien and her boyfriend, Scott. It has been just five days since the four-month-old pair was adopted from the Atlanta Humane Society, but they are already Sutherland SALT’s biggest fans: while Mom and Dad are away at work, the kittens&rsquo
