Willie von Gardiner is a delightful dog full of love and happiness to give to whomever will receive it- fur or no fur.  He has such a gentle nature and wonderful easy going temperament. Willie adapts easily to new situations. You'll always observe his trademark wag. He's in a foster home with a 9 year old girl and 2 Chihuahuas. Willie enjoys accompanying his foster mom on a 4 mile run each and every morning so he would definitely make a perfect running partner for someone.  He will follow you everywhere and especially enjoys being your helper. Like any working breed, Willie loves having a job. He has excelled with a couple of chores in his foster home; in particular dishwashing, chicken sampling and sous chef.  Every time you open the dishwasher, he thinks it's time to help with the dishes… especially the gravy coated spatulas! And if you are not looking, he will even help you put them away! Willie's favorite job has been Senior Project manager in the research and development department of poultry sampling to determine which has better flavor: Foster Farms or Trader Joe's organic chicken. (test results are pending). Willie is available for interviews, but it's best if you can hire Willie and make his stellar resume complete with a forever home!
