What’s your favorite part about Finnegan? He smiles when he sees us in the morning and he tilts his head when we talk to him.

What is his favorite spot in your home? Anywhere his people are or on our bed when he can get on it!

What’s the funniest memory you have with  him? He is a herding dog so he doesn’t like when we’re not all together. One weekend last summer he did not like it we jumped off the boat to go swimming. He stood at the edge barking at everyone until he finally jumped in, swam around all of us and we got back in the boat.

What’s your favorite thing to do with Finnegan? Play with him in the morning before our boys get up. He has a lot of energy after sleeping all night!
