Acer

Sure Flow’s current mascot is “Acer the Wonder Dog.” Acer’s a purebred golden retriever who has found a way into all of our hearts in the Sure Flow family. He is a sweet, affectionate dog who regularly makes the rounds to make sure everyone is in good spirits. There is something about an animal that just wants you to throw a tennis ball for him, that reminds you of the simple joys that animals experience every day.

This photo shows Acer at about 6 months playing with a tennis ball. I should have named him “Shadow”, because he follows me everywhere. It’s often difficult to get out of the shower because he blocks the door. He is with me 24 hours a day. He is a great companion and friend.

As I write this Acer is by my desk sleeping.

Acer loves the water. If I turn my back, he will be in the shower or the bath tub.. or in the lake.

To the right is a recent photo of Acer in Florida, in the winter of 2022.

I have a home in Northern Canada and he is in the lake until he drops. He just loves to swim.

He also spends alot of time at Sure Flow, where he often sits in on meetings.

A special thanks to Kathy Hagerman who paints portraits of my furry friends.

Here are some more photos of my good buddy Acer.

Here’s a fun before and after. Just to prove how smart Acer, he was reading the paper as a puppy!

Polar vortex? What polar vortex! The snow’s fabulous.. come on in! Canadian winters are the best!

Here’s Acer as a puppy, full of energy!
