Whew! they tell me i am 8 years old - where's the birthday cake my friends - what a distinguished fellow i am for eight years old - and i am perky to boot - i like my romp in the garden and snooze in the sunshine - i will even go for a walk with you - i'm pretty good on that leash thing - come to think of it i am pretty good all round - house trained, will sleep in a doggie bed on the floor, will not bark unless i sense something very curious - love ear rubs and a cuddle - and would you believe that i take a shower in your very own shower place - be sure to use my special shampoo though 'cause i have some skin allergies and will itch if you don't - and also make sure you put some of those cold drops in my ears and give me my pill every couple of days - that way i won't chew on my leg so much - it sure does get irritated if i don't take my meds, so i'm good about taking that pill.
i like other dogs and will hang out with them, and maybe even sprint a bit if i get the chance - and i love my human friends best of all - if you will love on me, brush my curls, give me a walk and let me hang out with you i will be your "forever friend" forever - if i forget to lick your nose, remind me and i will take care of that quick smart - i really like to ride in the car, and sit quietly until you tell me it is time to get out and take a walk - i went to Santa Fe the other day with my foster mom and didn't once try to sit on her lap - she told me to stay on that seat, so i stayed - i'm a real good old boy dog.
now if i could choose my special home i would look for a nice quiet place with a couple of adult human friends who would love me, walk with me, give me a few treats now and then, and be sure to take me to interesting places to sniff new places - i wouldn't mind a dog companion who would be a nice friend, but please don't set me up with a rough and tumble guy or a snarly girl - i could not handle that - i like to be with my human friends a lot, but i will snooze while you have some time to yourself - i can be accommodating! - i generally prefer to have older kids for friends - i guess i am done with the small kid family stuff now that i am mature, settled, and set in my ways - please respect this request!
if you think i might fit well in your home and with your family email Elaine - priceabq@aol.com
