Meet Spike


Name: Spike

Breed: English Bulldog

Favorite toy: 
Any stuffie with a big nose.
Yea, I'm a suckler, SO WHAT.

Favorite activities:
Sunbathing. AKA "baking"

Biggest dislike:
Baths. Don't even get me started.

What is your biggest weakness?
I love to smell stuff, but with my 
flat face, I don't always know
what I'm smellin' or where in the
world it's coming from. That 
may or may not include some gas...
that probably (definitely) came
from me. 

If you could communicate with 
your human for one minute,
what would you say? 
I wanna give a shoutout to the 
'rents and let them know that
I love them very much, and they
give me a super awesome life. 
Also, I want my dad to STOP 
tryina kick me off the lounge
chair. Dogs rule, people drool.
Ok I may drool sometimes, but I 
am still cool. End of story.

What is your favorite thing about 
being a Rover office dog?
I seriously have it good, people.
My dad wheels me around on this 
cart. I don't have to walk 
ANYWHERE when I put my tootsie 
brakes on. Sometimes, he even 
puts a bed on the bottom and 
wheels me around. 
People take pics, it's cool.
