 MY DOG -MADISONHi - I'm MADISON and I just graduated from Intermediate Obedience class February 4th. ArLene ADOPTED ME 5 months ago (September 6th 2003)....I was in a Dog FOSTER HOME for almost a year...and her Daughter, Pam (My Godmother) found me on the INTERNET. ArLene loves to use her Real Estate camera to take photos of me...and now she's going to let you see what I have to go through living with the "paparazzi"..... Here's my GRADUATION Photo..She made the cap from a black notebook cover....I tried real hard to hold my ears up through the holes on the side! (Thanks for your good wishes - but, no gifts, please) A big hug - and A-Lick-On-The-Chin MADISON |
 THE COLLEGE GRADI'm sure glad ArLene didn't make me wear these glasses for my Graduation picture. She thinks I look more "intelligent" with glasses. And...what do you think of my boots... Well, it's a tough Minnesota Winter... and I do get lots of compliments at Petco and Petsmart on the weekends. Hugs & Licks... MADISON |
 REALTOR DOGArLene calls me "REALTOR-DOG" when we go in her car to do Drive-By Broker Price Opinions. I have my own seatbelt (ArLene's very safety conscious) and I ride in the front seat. Sometimes she sings along with the radio...but, I keep my eyes right on the road -I'm very serious when we're driving. She doesn't let me come along on her regular Listing Appointments... I go with ArLene to her office every day...so, I guess I can't complain. Hugs and Licks... MADISON |
 PRIVATE PLACEI've got a Soft Job, I know.... Here's my place in ArLene's office. That's my Kitty Pillow. I have a few toys... but, really, I'm not into toys. I'd rather do a Brokers Price Opinion. I love being at the office and my friend, CLAYTON, the POSTMAN always brings a great "cookie" with the mail. THIS IS A GREAT JOB! Hugs & Licks MADISON |
 RAINY-DAY BLUESWell...we've all got "HANG-UPS"... I'm a GERMAN SHEPHERD and I'm scared of thunder. And if that isn't bad enough.... Here's what I have to wear when it rains. ArLene used to wrap a garbage bag around me and put little "baggies" with rubber bands on my feet before she found this outfit. Oh well, I love ArLene... and it makes her happy so... Hugs and Licks-On-The-Chin MADISON |
 WORKIN' LATEYou can't believe the long hours I put in here at the office -It's great to take a little nap while ArLene presents an offer in the Conference Room. I wait patiently... and then we head for home where my "sister" PEKI, the cat, (she's Siamese, if you please...and mostly she's if you don't please) waits to eat with me and ArLene. Really, it's a great life! Hugs & Licks... MADISON |
 DESIGNATIONSSeriously, I don't just lay around napping. I have plans and dreams too. I've completed Beginners Obedience and Intermediate Obedience and next week I'm signed up for Novice Class. In March... well, I'm attending THERAPY DOG classes. ArLene has BROKER and GRI following her name...Just imagine what my business card will say! Hugs & Licks... MADISON |
 SUNBREAKI don't know about you...but, I've had it with this 35 below windchill stuff. If only ArLene would get over her fear of flying...we could head for Phoenix for a few days. I'm waiting for the day when my scarf has a summer motif. Hugs & Licks... MADISON |
 SHADES OF SUMMERTIME!Hey! Summer's great in Minnesota! Sunroof Open...Windows Down...Drive-By BPO's...and ArLene takes me along! When she yells "REALTOR-DOG"..I'm ready to roll! (I hope you don't laugh when you see me at Stop-Signs...she makes me wear these sunglasses...and I'd look better on a Harley) Oh well, it makes her smile! Hugs & Licks... MADISON |
 CAN'T STOP SMILIN'I PASSED THE TESTS...and now I'm a THERAPY DOG! Can't wait to get my official Badge from THERAPY DOGS, INTERNATIONAL and see my Business Cards! I tried to look modest for the photo...but, I just CAN'T STOP SMILING! Hugs & Licks.... MADISON |
 MADISON, TDIIT'S A BIG DAY!! I'm wearing my official yellow badge.... "I AM A THERAPY DOG".... Therapy Dogs International, Inc. (ID No. 041718) Maybe I'll meet you or someone you love in a Hospital or Nursing Home. (Let me know if you'd like me to VISIT SOMEONE SPECIAL to you) Hugs & Licks.... MADISON |
 SUPPORT OUR TROOPSIt's a New Year 2005... and I'm trying to do my part to Support Our Troops. Just got new boots and ArLene made this Yellow Ribbon and painted it for me to wear with my Army scarf! Really, I would enlist...but, ArLene just won't let me go. So, I'll just say my prayers...and wear my 'SUPPORT OUR TROOPS' yellow ribbon...And send 'em all Hugs and Licks... MADISON |
 PERSONAL ASSISTANTYES...I have been promoted to be ArLene's "PERSONAL ASSISTANT" - I've worked really hard for this promotion -Traveling along inspecting properties...and spending long hours with ArLene as she lists and Stages her listings. Sometimes she uses me as a "MODEL" ...so, look for me in her listings. GIVE HER A CALL...I'LL COME ALONG... Hugs & Licks... MADISON |
 I AM A THERAPY DOGOH YES...I'm NOT a "Realtor Workaholic" ...I've been visiting CATHOLIC ELDERCARE on Main in Minneapolis for over a year now AND every other Friday THE VETERANS HOME in Minneapolis... And just last month I graduated from "ACTING CLASS" in Woodbury. HOWEVER -Real Estate is my Passion - SO GIVE ARLENE A CALL ...AND I'LL COME ALONG! Hugs & Licks MADISON |
 I LOVE MY LIFESTYLESEPTEMBER 6th 2006... It's been THREE YEARS now since ArLene ADOPTED ME! Being a THERAPY DOG is what I LOVE - and now I get to go along to ST. ANTHONY HEALTH CENTER in St Anthony. But remember... REAL ESTATE IS MY PASSION.. SO, GIVE ARLENE A CALL! A big hug- and A Lick-On-The-Chin MADISON |
 ON THE ROAD AGAINJULY 2007.... ARLENE won't let me drive...But I do LOVE sittin' behind the wheel. HEY...WAVE WHEN I DRIVE BY (in the passenger seat only)! BETTER YET...Give ARLENE a Call to help you BUY OR SELL! Hugs and Licks MADISON |
