How did you come to live with your current family?

Sadly, my mom was terminally ill. A terrific rescue group called Rebecca’s Rainbow helped us, and I found my new family.

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

I love eating vegetables. Also, I am quite afraid of my family’s young, spunky, 3-legged cat. She is tough! I am the greatest dog EVER when riding in the car.

Besides Day Care… what do you love?

I love going for walks, playing with squeaky toys, licking my people in the morning to get them up, and wading into Lake Padden and Lake Whatcom. No actual swimming, though, please! I also enjoy sprinting around my yard while one or more of my dog siblings chase me. Hee hee! I have mastered eating from Kongs and thank my friends at Tails for helping me to learn how awesome they can be.

What are your favorite toys or games?

Squeaky toys are great! I have also been known to engage in a game of tug-o-war with one of my dog brothers. Stealing the cat toys and running around like a crazy guy is quite fun, too.

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

P.E. with a double minor in sociology and culinary arts

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

Big black mutt in search of people to pet me, rambunctious dogs to play with, and new experiences. It might take me a little while to get comfortable in new situations, but I am up for the challenge!

Other information we should know about you?

Coming to Tails-A-Wagging is helping me to come out of my shell and to build my confidence. I might seem like a reserved, unsure dude, but I am actually loving and warm. I am a great doggie sibling and have been a foster bro to 2 dogs. There are now 4 of us pooches in the family and 2 cats. What fun!
