Wasabi’s story:

Wasabi was originally sold to a couple that owns a Sushi restaurant, hence the name! They divorced when Wasabi was a few months old, the wife got everything and the husband got the dog. That left him with nowhere to keep the dog so he came back to Heather and was home to stay. He is co-owned with Alan. Definitely a life changing decision! Wasabi is Heather’s first male that has lived at her house. What a difference between the boys and the girls that she was used to! Wasabi has a great sense of humor and is a total clown. When he was a puppy, Heather filled a blue plastic baby pool up in the backyard on a hot day and went to work. When she came home he was running around the yard with the pool in his mouth! At his first National Specialty in Riverside, CA he went 3rd in Futurity and 2nd in the Bred By Class. It was also the first time he was in harness for a weight pull. At 9 months of age he pulled 17 times his body weight! He finished his Championship and also placed 4th at the 2009 National Specialty in the Working Dog class. Wasabi has produced 3 litters and has many Champion kids we are so proud of. Wasabi is a definite people dog and goes to work every day at a medical supply company where Heather is the Manager. He is a titled Certified Therapy Dog and we visit the hospitals to visit patients as well as visiting with the customers at work. He also works with severely autistic children once a week, which is his specialty. He likes to spread his big Sammy smile around and is incredible at his job. We wish we had more time to do this full time. Wasabi has been invited to two Eukanuba National Championships in Long Beach and in 2006 was featured in the commercial for the show running on Animal Planet. He was also the Samoyed featured on the poster and ad in People Magazine promoting the show. Since that commercial aired, he is quite the Hollywood star and has been featured in a Little Cesar Dog Food Commercial, Print ad for "The Marriage Ref", Print ad for Target/Iams Dog Food where he is in all 2000+ stores around the Nation and Featured on the Yahoo main page. He is a definite star! Most importantly, he is Heather’s soulmate and goes everywhere with her whenever possible.
