Burnie (Par Burn it Down): 11/3 - Meet Burnie



Hi! I’m Burnie. My racing name was ‘Feel the Burn’. I’m big, handsome, brindle, and full of life! I’ve been in my foster home for a couple of days now, and I’ve been working non-stop to show my foster parents how amazing I am. Going for long walks-check! Eating my dinner and breakfast in 4.3 seconds-check! Sleeping through the night-check! 🐶


Even though I’m amazing apparently I need “a little work” in a few areas, like pulling on the leash and keeping my nose (and sometimes paws!) off the counters. I’m a quick learner though, so I’m sure I’ll get better really soon.


The thing about me is that while I’m big and strong, I can be gentle and have a heart of gold. I love to wag my tail and be close to my foster parents at all times. I even tried to nap with my foster sister last night, although I was too big for the bed!


This whole retirement thing is super new to me, but I’m looking forward to learning more about it, and finding my forever family soon!

- Burnie.
