10/29/2015 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Look closely at the cutie’s face and you’ll see the most adorable line of whiskers across his upper lip — a little whiskered mustache! So cute! He’s handsome in his clean white coat, his black eye patch gives him a rakish sexy look, and as I unlatch his door his tail wags in greeting. Dane (yes, we’re on a nickname friendship now) pulls hard on the leash so will benefit from a harness and/or some leash training. Using the “facilities” as soon as we were out the door shows me he’s housetrained, and after a short walk we head to the backyard. As Dane explores the pen, he comes to me when I call him and enjoys a butt scratch doing the 1,2 step butt scratch ‘shuffle’ as I rub him. Taking treats gently when offered, he’s off again to explore, returning for another treat and some kisses. In group play he’s tolerant but not completely engaged right away. Handsome, affectionate but not “in your face”, Dane is looking for a new person or family with whom to enjoy life. Ask to meet him today. Another volunteer writes: Detective Denim here, primed and ready for action! I love to explore so when we’re out patrolling the streets sniffing is my number one priority (after I’ve taken care of number two of course!) and I always find the best trees and leaf piles to investigate. I do enjoy the physical side of my job but I’m never hyper and when it’s time for snacks or snuggles I’m fine with taking a break to sit on command, enjoy a treat or a massage and offer a little kiss (or three!) in return. I’m a savvy guy (us Detectives have to be, y’know?) so while I follow instructions well, I might sometimes give you ‘the look’ and take my sweet time sitting down, just to remind you that Denim is still the boss of Denim. Hanging out with my doggie friends is always fun and I’m told I have pretty fine social manners, greeting politely and keeping my cool amid the hubbub of a busy playgroup too. If you’ve been searching for a pet who’ll bring all the smarts, loyalty and heart to get the job done right then look no further–Denim’s your guy! So whaddaya say, partner…shall we head on outta here?
