 PJ's Story
We
first saw PJ on pet-finder, where it was stated that he was in
desperate need of rescue because his questionable living conditions.
Through coordinated effort with the Friends of Linden Animal shelter
here in NJ, I picked up 2-year-old PJ from his owner who, due to
health issues, could no longer care for him. He was easily the
filthiest, smelliest, most matted Wheaten I had ever seen. His back
was all one single mat – we could tell he was very uncomfortable.
Luckily we had an appointment the very next day to see our groomer.
Pete gave PJ the works, and our little guy was much happier when I
picked him up that afternoon.
 PJ was a wild man, running circles around my
boys. He very clearly needed obedience
training, so we set out to find an owner who would be patient and
willing to work with him. We were confident that once he went to
class and learned some manners, he would be a wonderful companion.
We had one family in mind for PJ, but
ultimately his energy level, lack of manners, and his revved up
Wheaten Greeting was a little bit much for them. We think that fate
might have stepped in there because a few weeks later, we found the
perfect home for PJ. He’s gone to Arlington, VA to live with his new
Mom Jennifer, who settled on a distinguished Irish name for her
little guy – Finley.
 Finley
and his new Mom are doing great. They started with individual
obedience classes and are now moving into the basic adult class and
the feedback is as we expected; he’s a very smart boy. We are very
happy for Finley and for Jennifer.
