Sal with Suzzie

Beach time!

Sal has been part of the Knowles’ team for four years and lives in Chichester, NH with his dog Suzzie, his fiancé Katie and her 13-year-old son Kadyn.

Your job at Knowles? I drive the bucket truck that lifts crew up into the trees and also operate the chipper machine. I work closely with our foreman Jamie…a great guy! Best part of your job? It’s just a fun job, and I can bring my dog to work! Suzzie used to go every day, but that’s changed a bit. Some mornings when I let her out, she heads straight back to bed, which tells me she’d rather stay home. Other mornings, she’ll go outside and then head to the truck. So now I just leave it up to her. Another bonus…I no longer need to work out at the gym, as I get a great workout on the job. A bit about Suzzie? I got her when she was 7 weeks old. She’s now 3 ½. She came from Maine, was the runt of the litter and was one of the cutest puppies ever. I’m not just saying that because she’s my dog. We camp a lot, and everyone at the campground always said the same. She’s a Boxer/Lab mix. Suzzie is a really friendly. She always greets our neighbors while camping and also loves kids. She’s great with my nieces and nephews.

take her time when I call her. She always comes to me, but sometimes very slowly. What do you love most about her? I love how loving and affectionate she is. She truly is one of the most affectionate dogs I’ve ever met.

P.S. An apology to Sal. Suzzie’s picture has been in the magazine before & we called her Susie. Glad to finally get her name right!
