10/31/2015 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Surrendered by her family as they no longer have time for her, we’re told that she’s housetrained (check), lived with kids ages 10, 11, 13 and 17 and was friendly to and played gently with all, lived with a 4 year old cat whom she licked and played with, is well behaved when left home alone and loves to run in the park. I kept thinking Milano cookie (my favorite) as I spent time with Cookie; rich, sweet, soft on the inside, absolutely delicious and you can’t stop after you’ve had one. Cookie is a little brindle morsel, petite, well groomed, tail waggy and friendly. She ignored dogs we passed on our walk, and in group play greets politely, solicits and engages in running play. In a backyard pen she loved playing with a plush toy, amusing herself, jumping for it when I tossed it, and taking it under the bench for a good chomp (but not tearing it apart). A proven family dog, Cookie is looking for a new family to love. She’s active, intelligent and a sweetheart hoping to start her ‘happily ever after’ with you.
