Age: 2 years Gender: Male Color: Tri-colored Weight: 40 lbs. Variety: Field-Bred RESUME - ARNIE, THE DOG OBJECTIVE - Applying for position as your faithful home companion. I am a smart, energetic, and eager to please young adult male (about two years old), weighing 42 pounds. If you hire me to become a member of your family, I will add love, fun, and companionship to your life every day of the year- I even work on holidays! JOB HISTORY - I held an entry level position as family pet, but my former employers took periodic business trips, leaving me to roam and forage for food and to survive as best I could for several days at a time. Then my company relocated, completely abandoning me in the middle of winter. I was homeless and starving until the county shelter picked me up, and the kind people from Rescue came to my aid. EDUCATION - I am a good student and require my new family to take me for obedience training, where I am sure I will be the star of the class. SPECIAL TALENTS - I can wag my tail in a circle, catch and retrieve balls, stand on my back legs to give you a hug and kiss, sit for a treat, and keep you safe from squirrels. I don't have accidents in my cubicle, and I enjoy taking a break in my crate. SALARY - Because I run and jump enthusiastically, I require a yard with a 5 to 6 foot fence to keep me safe. I wish for a child to love and the companionship of someone at home most of the time. Also, I need lots of attention, treats, and chew toys. LETTER OF REFERENCE FROM MY FOSTER MOM - Arnie has quickly learned our routine to become a member of our family. He gives a friendly greeting to all family members and visitors and is gentle with children. He loves to play fetch, dropping the ball so we can throw it again. He is most affectionate, responsive, and wants to please. Arnie and his foster brother have rollicking good times playing tug-of-war, keep away, tag, etc. Arnie is neutered and up to date on all his shots. Who could resist him when he gives that soulful look that says, I just want to be with you?
