Jessie

How did you come to live with your current family?

I was born on Sept. 14, 2007 in Tacoma. I have a brother and sister that I regularly outsmarted in our whelping box. I came to Bellingham on a snowy day in December after a very long car ride.

What Silly or Little known facts should we know about you?

I save barking for intruders, so to be let outside I ring a bell on the sliding glass door. (Ring, ring, ring!) I am scared of the dishwasher. I love to cuddle on the couch!

Besides Day Care… what do you love?

I love everything! People are great, especially when they have food or want to pay attention to me. I really like other dogs ¾ and they like me. Kitties, I love kitties, although we don’t have any at my house I sometimes get to visit my kitty cousin, Smokey, or better yet find one in the yard to chase.

What are your favorite toys or games?

I love playing keep away with all my doggie friends and the real goal is to get you to chase me. When at home I really like to run laps as fast as I can around our yard and do a superman jump over objects or onto the deck.

If you had a major in college…what would it be?

After winning a scholarship by becoming Miss America I plan to major in Communications.

If you wrote a personal ad… what would it say?

Fun-loving, petite Beagle looking for a soul mate. Flirty, social girl who likes the dog park and doggie daycare. Love stalking and chasing squirrels or kitties but would never hurt a fly. Hate being alone. Dislike swimming and strange noises, but don’t mind if you like those things!

Other information we should know about you?

I went on my first vacation last year to a cottage in Ontario, Canada. The highlight was fishing in the canoe. However, I had so many great experiences, like riding in the motorboat with my ears flapping in the wind, sleeping on my people’s bed (usually off limits), playing with frogs and napping on the dock. I hope we go back, even though I didn’t really like the plane ride that much.
