Finnley, the Dog of the Day
Name: Finnley
Age: One year old
Gender: Male Breed: Collie mix
Home: Manhattan, New York, USA
 
   Hi, my name is Finnley (Finn for short), I am a rescue dog from Tennessee and my I am studying to be a Service dog. My owner says I am the most special thing in all the world. We work in a pet shelter and my job is to keep all the little kittens happy and unafraid of their new surroundings. Everyone tells me how beautiful I am and wants to know what breed I am... all I know is I feel special to be so loved and I have a best friend who was also rescued from Tennessee and we do everything together. When we go to the dog park we're the fastest dogs in the park. We run, and run and run, but we always come when called.

    I am pretty shy at first, the city has taught me to be cautious with strangers, but once I meet you, I am your friend forever. I am very loyal and always do my very best to make my friends feel special. I love being cuddled and having my soft coat rubbed; if you stop I will take my paw and pull your hand back. I am a very big fan of fetch and keep away. I think the frisbee is my favorite toy right now, but anything you may want to toss works for me! I love being outside and having the air in my nostrils, but I like to be inside so I may snuggle on the sofa with my mom. I have all kind of friends at the shelter, and love my work, mostly I try to help in any way I am able and help the new dogs feel safe in their temporary home. I know how it feels to wait for a new forever home, so I try to tell everyone how great it is going to be when they finally decide who to choose as their new owner. I feel pretty lucky and wake up every day to a whole new adventure!
