• “Hi! Finnigan Alexander, here. I was adopted in 2022 and love exploring, agility, walks, and BALL! I can be nervous about new things, but have come a long way. Mom likes to tell everyone how I used to be afraid of garbage trucks and school buses...which is soooo embarrassing! I'm over that now though. Now it's plastic bags, the mailman, and things that move in mysterious ways. I also learned dock diving last year. I was...well, scared, at first...but then I had so much fun! Can't wait to go exploring at your Sniff Spot to have more adventures and to get more confidence! Thanks for having us!“
