I visited Gettysburg yesterday and came upon the monument to the 11th Pennsylvania Volunteers. The veterans when designing their monument thought so highly of their mascot that they included her in the design. I hope you enjoy her story.

And if you happen upon Sallie be sure to leave her a dog biscuit there next to her. She’s earned it.

It is said that there were only three things Sallie had a distaste for, Rebels, Democrats and women.

Two out of three ain't bad.

This is beautiful. Sallie was more of an American than the current dog in the White House.
