If lazy Sunday mornings were magically turned into a dog, you'd get Whiskey! This handsome gentleman has absolutely mastered the art of taking life slow and soaking up the simple joys: a warm sunbeam to nap in and as many pets as the humans are willing to provide. Whiskey is just so friendly and endlessly sweet!
Whiskey absolutely adores people and has a special talent for gently convincing everyone around him to stop what they're doing and give him affection immediately. A few scratches behind the ears? Heaven! He has a wonderful nature that makes him such a great dog to spend time with. If your idea of perfection includes a dog who treats every pet like the greatest gift in the world, Whiskey is ready to stroll right into your heart and make himself right at home!
