Hi my name is JETHRO and I am the happiest dog in all the land, here in Buffalo and away from the yucky shelter. I want to have a home of my own for Christmas. 

My foster mom says I am something called a Golden Retriever, my fur is pretty golden, so I guess she's right. 

I love to play with my foster sister Luna, who is something called  a great Py- ran - ese she does ran but I'm still trying to figure out why that is great? 

I also like to play with my 2 kitty fosters sisters, Cassie and Polly - they iz cwazy kitties !! When I'm not playing with other doggies and kitties I am very happy playing quietly with my Kong or chasing my tennis ball in the back yard. 

My foster mommy says I am so great on car rides, I'm not sure what a car is but I know I wag my tail a lot when I go in that thing that goes fast and I get to smell all the fresh air coming into my face !

I am a big boy who knows to do my potty outside and I can walk on a leash!

Can you help me get my Christmas wish and find a family of my very own - could you be my family?
