FIRST POST: August 28, 2020 (from a pit of anxious boredom) David Fromm (is feeling lonely) to LM Area ISO: ISO dog rental. New to town, you guys have a lot of wonderful dogs here. Short dogs, tall dogs, skinny dogs, fat dogs. Where do you rent your dogs? I would like to rent a dog that looks like the dog I had as a youth—a Bichon-Weimaraner blend who answered to the name Cleve.

Not sure what his given name was. Anyway, I’d like to rent a similar dog, just for a couple of hours, to watch tv with. Cleve used to love watching Magnum P. I. and the PBS Newshour. Didn’t we all? Simpler times. Simpler times. Would be helpful if rental dog was named Cleve or could at least act like that was his or her name. Any leads appreciated.
