Guido, the Dog of the Day
Name: Guido
Age: Seven years old
Gender: Male Breed: Jack Russell Terrier
Home: Seattle, Washington, USA
 
   I adopted Guido from an animal shelter three years ago. He has been the best companion I could have ever wished for. He is loving, loyal, well behaved, and very smart. About six months after I had him he was attacked by another dog at a park, and nearly died. He spent several days at the vet, and finally got better. I am so thankful he is alive.

    His favorite thing to do is to destroy his dog toys and leave parts of them all over the house. He also loves treats and will do as many tricks as it takes to get one. He is very good at hunting rodents, even though I don't like him to. He is very spoiled and knows he can get pretty much whatever he wants. He sleeps in my bed, and gets to go almost everywhere I go. He can't stand anyone fighting or crying. If people are fighting he gets between them and barks. If someone is crying he jumps on their lap and licks their face. He also acts as the police when we go to the dog park. If he could, he would hand out tickets to dogs speeding, or not behaving.

    I happen to be in the petstore one day and saw they had photo ops with the Easter bunny. I couldn't resist. After the picture was taken, he tried to chew on the rabbits ears. I think he thought it was a giant dog toy!
