| Dear Sparky…. |
Hi Everybody!
Welcome to my very own column on the Brookline web site! You may be
wondering who I am and why I get my own column. Well, I am the Great
Sparkdini (hee-hee) and I am a very famous (and really good-looking) Brookline
foster dog! Oh, let me clarify - I'm not a foster dog anymore. With the help of all
my Brookline buddies, I found my very own, WAY COOL forever family and I've
been with them for almost a year! But, I was a Brookline foster dog for six wacky
and wonderful months so I know a lot about how the Brookline process works.
And yeah, this Brookline thing made me famous, too! When I became a
Brookline foster dog, I went to live with my two foster moms, their cat, Toby, and
my amigos, Rudy and Gus. My amigos are puppers, like me! My foster moms
have lots of dog experience, so they thought they knew everything they needed
to know to handle me. Silly Girls! Boy, did I have a lot to teach them. Some of
the stories of the things my foster moms tried to do were pretty darn funny - they

sure did make me laugh. I used to tell my Brookline buddies all about it….and the stories made them laugh, too! That's how I got to be
so famous.
As for the really good-looking part? Well, I was just born that way. Hee-hee!
Since I'm very knowledgeable and famous (and really good-looking), the Brookline folks asked me to write a column to answer any
questions you pups (or people!) have about Brookline…or dogs…or even training foster moms! Hee-hee. Just send your questions to
AskSparky@verizon.net.
Since I don't have any questions from you yet, allow me to impart some wisdom especially appropriate for this time of year. This is a true
story, guys! I know cos it happened to me! Around the holidays, people like to decorate their houses and bushes and trees with bright,
flashy lights. Cool! And your person might like to take you for walks around the neighborhood so you can look at all those pretty lights.
Way Cool! But….should you happen to pee on those lights ….. zzzzap…OUCH! Not so cool! That smarts! I almost became the Great
Spark-weenie! I thought those lights were just decorations, but I think they may be some sort of anti-pee device or something! Boy would
I like to booby-trap someone's toilet! Beware of those lights. They could change your potty experience forever!
Okay puppers and people, send me those emails! If you have a question, the Great Sparkdini has an answer!
Hugs and Sloppy Kisses,
