PROUD TO BE DOLLY MADISON

I just learned that the original Dolly Madison was the first First Lady to serve in Washington DC. She was the wife of former president James Madison and she became famous in her own right. She was known for her strength and her stand against what she thought was wrong so people have been naming things for her ever since. Pretty cool name to share ah? I am so proud!

I am 4 years old and I have recently arrived in BTRNC rescue and am staying with a wonderful foster family. My foster Mom even let me help with this blog.

Even though I am so proud of my real name, it's a long one so I have several nick names. Dolly is my favorite name but I like cupcake and zinger too. My foster siblings call me dingdong which is still o.k.. I'm just glad to have a home and people to call me something. My foster Mom is specially pleased that I like cats. Heck, cats are just animals too. I am working real hard on house training. I am mostly working on training my family to pick up on my hints that I need to go outside. I think we are all getting the hang of it because we don't have very many accidents these days. We go for a walk, all of us together. My foster Mom and Dad say that the family that walks together gets along together. I like to go for a walk so whatever they say is fine with me.

I have many important things to do each day like chew by bone, play with my new toys and of course nap on my bed.

One more thing, I wanted to let everyone know that I am slowly adjusting to being in my crate when my foster people are not home. I am learning that they will come back and let me out as soon as they can. That's a nice feeling.

I hope that you will check out my bio on the available dogs page. Maybe I am the proud Dolly Madison to make your family complete.

Happy New Year everyone! I have a feeling this is going to be a good year for me. Please remember to paws to tell someone you love them everyday.
