Fill out a doggy survey (if you want to)!

[Mirg]

Ok, this is just for fun, at least i think filling out suveys are fun! I didnt see any surveys on GP. I was just looking through A.j.'s puppybook (a bought book where to fill out the questions about your pup) and so i decided i would post some of the questions so people could fill them out if they want. I left out all the phone number and address questions. This would be especially good if you have a dog up for adoption, you can let people get to know the dog with all the questions. If you dont know one, just put "Unknown" or "N/A".

Ok, here it is, if you want to do it, just copy and paste.

Full Name: Jesse James
Call Name: Jesse
Nickname: The lil' Mexican, Jess-Jess, Jesse McJames, McJesse, Jessekins, El Nacho and Potato Chip
Why these names were picked: Full name was picked because I wanted him to have a boys name, without it being stupidly macho, and I rescued him from a shelter so I figured that's close enough to 'busting him out of prison'....he's my little outlaw. Nick names...I have no idea. He's mostly called 'The Lil' Mexican' because his breed, although probably not scrictly Mexican at all, is named after the Mexican city of Chihuahua. Potato Chip was something stupid I gave him because my sister's dogs nick name (that I gave her) was 'Pumpkin Pie' so Jesse needed a food name too. LOL And he's white like a potato.
Date of Birth: No idea...sometime around 1990 approx.
Place of Birth: No idea.
Previous home(s): No clue, probably with a man given his preference for men.
History before adopted: Was abandoned or dumped near/in a McDonalds car park.
Why this dog was picked: Because he came straight to me, sat in my lap and licked my hand the day I met him. Knowing how shy he was back then (and still is to a point), this was a big deal. I fell in love.
Gender: All male, baby!
Breed: Chihuahua (long coat)
Registered?: No idea, but probably not. I know I never registered him.
Sire: No idea
Dam: No idea
Siblings in Litter: No idea
Color: Predominately white
Eye Color: Brown
Ear Type: Pointed/erect
Markings: Use to have tan patches over his ears and still has (fading) reddish patches on his lower back and base of his tail

Other pets house is shared with: Two cockatiels, Daedalus & Icarus
Where dog slept on first night: My bed (he peed on it too )
Cried on first nigh?: Nope
Current usual sleeping spot: He has his own room, he sleeps either in a faux sheepskin bed, his crate, or on a small pile of curtains which were suppose to be moved but since Jesse likes them so much (and no one else does) we haven't the heart to take them away.
Does this dog have a:
-Dog house?: No
-Kennel run?: No
-Fenced yard?: Yes
-Invisible fence?: No
-Big yard?: In relation to his size, yes. LOL In reality, it's medium sized.
-Small yard?: No.
-Crate?: Yes
Has dog been neutered/spayed?: Yes
Does dog have:
-Collar with ID information?: Yes
-Microchip embedded?: Yes
Favorite place to walk to: No, he can't walk far anymore. He does like to be carried and then left to wander around and explore what ever he can see through his murky vision.
Favorite toy(s): Doesn't like toys...unless you count anything foam he can scratch up.
Animals that this dog is good with: Dogs, cats, birds (domestic, he chases birds in the backyard when he has the energy), rodents.
Has this dog gone to a dog park before?: No
Good with kids, men, and women? Great with men, good with women and terrible with kids (although not aggressive, just VERY shy and nervous)
What dog does when a stranger approaches him/her: Either nothing, or a short grumble (not growl) then nothing.

First vet visit: When he was with me....it was to get neutered before I brought him home after I adopted him.
How did dog act at first vet visit?: No idea, I wasn't there.
Is this dog entered in training classes?: No...he's far too old
-If so, where?:
Dog's Trainer:
Afraid/nervous of: Children and being stepped on. He's great at keeping out of your way.
First show: n/a
Awards: Apart from winning a picture contest (and my heart of course) he hasn't won anything. But he thinks he's the worlds greatest despite this.
Has dog ever done advertising?: No, but it would be cool to see his little face on something.
Has dog had any litters? No, I'm sure he's very relieved about that too. However, before I got him he wasn't neutered so could have fathered litters for all I know.
-Date: -Co-parent: -Number of puppies:
-Date: -Co-parent: -Number of puppies:
How did this dog celebrate his/her first birthday?: No idea. I don't generally celebrate my dogs birthdays, only because I don't ever know when they actually are. LOL
Other celebrated holidays:

First bath: Don't remember...it's been 12yrs since I adopted him.

What did dog do during first bath?: can't remember, probably whined and screamed and plotted my death

Problems dog has had with grooming (fleas, ticks, infections, ect.): Had fleas once, when we visited my mother's place...never again though.
Favorite car ride place: On my lap looking out the window, however this is a 'no no' and so he's 99% of the time in his crate. I'm guilty of sitting him on my lap when we head to the vets, which takes 5mins in a car...I know, I warn people myself that a lot can happen in 5mins.
First big trip: The trip from the vets, after being neutered, to my home 5hrs away (I adopted him when I was out of town to visit my mother and sister who live a long way from me).
When this dog cant go on a trip, he/she stays at: Always goes with me. But in the event he can't the vets board animals so he can stay there...it's not happened yet though.
What dog usually gets in trouble for: Peeing on the carpet (although I never actually show him I'm mad).
Funniest thing dog does/did: The way he use to jump up onto the lounge. He'd check how high it was first by standing up on his backlegs, front legs on the lounge, then he'd baaaaaack right up and then decide he had to check again and go back to the lounge..recheck...baaaaaack up......recheck....baaaaaaack up......recheck and so on and so forth until he decided he was good to go and would take a flying leap. I wish I'd caught it on camera at some point. He can't do it now, it's too much for his heart.
Worst thing dog does/did: Pee on the carpet. LOL
Cutest thing dog does/did: This would take a life time to explain. He's just cute in general. Everything he does looks cute...he's a small, white fluffy...how can he not look cute?
Biggest mess made by this dog: Before I would have said scratching up that stupid foam mat...but since his little chair has had the cover off so I could wash it, he's scratched a HUGE chunk out of that too and covered the computer room floor in foam chunks. Took me ages to pick up. That would be the worst so far.
Scarriest thing dog has done: Almost die on me.
What most people comment on when the see this dog: "Oh my god! She is so cute! How big will she get?"
Ways dog is spoiled: Jesse's a grumpy old man, he doesn't admit to being spoiled at all. He's a tough guy. LOL But he gets spoiled in the usual doggy ways...treats, kisses, cuddles etc...

Wow, you're right, that was LOOOOOONG.

Cass.
