That is an axolotl. It's the neotenic salamander endemic to only a few areas in Mexico. I've kept a few before and they are amazing.

I wouldn't be too sure about that. Juvenile Tiger Salamanders, often sold as Water Dogs, are very very similar in appearance to Axolotls.
 
True but water dogs come in only one color form (wild) to my knowledge. This is a leucistic axoltl.

Yeah that's what the shop owner said they were, I just didn't know how to spell it lol. ;) he also has African lungfish, and a huge fire eel, that aren't for sale..... Love going there to look around.
