Furry Friday – Jimmy


I really want a dog!  But, my second to the youngest cat just won’t have it. 🙁  So, I am sharing adorable Jimmy from the Animal Rescue League of Iowa, so someone else can enjoy this love.

jimmy1Here’s his description from the ARL:

BIG FAN OF: Being active and doing his own thing.

SPECIAL FEATURES: Jimmy is a really nice guy who enjoys playing and being petted. He’ll pose nicely for pictures if you have treats! Confident, clever and somewhat independent, he likes exploring and making his own decisions — but he also loves being with his people.jimmy2

OTHER REASONS HE’S SPECIAL: Jimmy is a clean slate as far as training goes. Classes would be great for bonding and learning basic skills.

DREAM HOME: With guardians who will exercise him, train him and make him part of the family. He needs to be the only dog in his new home.
