MY NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTION – An interview with Mr. Winston

Winston2011B

AZBTR News – First - how did you end up in rescue?

Winston: My former dad started to travel a lot with his new lady friend, so I spent most of my time at a boarding facility.  Eventually, my dad called AZBTR to surrender me. I’m lucky that AZBTR came to get me and then gave me such a great foster family!

AZBTR News – What is your resolution for the New Year?

Winston: My resolution is to find my fur-ever home.  I’ve been looking for my fur-ever family since I joined AZBTR in September 2011.  I attended a few adoption events, but my fur-ever family wasn’t there.  They may have gotten me confused with the other Winstons that were rescued by AZBTR – there were two others in the AZBTR family in 2011! I’m Winston the Third, or Mr. Winston, as I am better known.

AZBTR News – How can your fur-ever family recognize you at an adoption event?

Winston: I am a distinguished 11 year old man with a touch of grey (like George Clooney!) and perfectly tipped ears. I have long legs and I am a lean BT machine.  I've been told that I have a very sweet face, too. My manners are impeccable and I’m not bouncy like the younger BTs; although I do get excited when it's time to eat, play, and go on my twice daily walks.

AZBTR News – Is it possible that your fur-ever family doesn’t know you are missing yet?

Winston:  I’m sure they’ve noticed an empty spot on the sofa and on their laps.  They’ve probably been lonely during naptime and wished they had a good snuggle buddy.  There is a chance that their other dog is searching for a partner for tug-o-war.  And it is possible that my fur-ever family has children that are looking for a dog that loves to be petted.

AZBTR News – What can your fur-ever family look forward to when they find you?

Winston: I am an easy dog to love. Caring for me doesn’t take much work because I enjoy bath time and getting my nails trimmed. I get two creams put in my eye because I have dry eye, but I don't mind it at all.  I sit still during my medication time and my foster parents are very gentle with me. I am hearty eater and my doctor says I’m in great health. Most of all,  am a great companion – I’ll go anywhere in the car, I will play dress up during Halloween, and I’m quiet when the TV is on.

AZBTR News – If your foster family was asked to describe you using only three words, what words would they use?

Winston: Snuggly, gentle, and reserved.

AZBTR News – Is there anything else we can do to help you find your fur-ever home?

Winston:  Could you post some cute photos of me?

AZBTR News – Of course we can.
