IT’S IN THE EYES. IT’S ALL IN THE EYES. That’s what Ahimsa Mary says about how she has chosen her rescue dogs. A connection. In the eyes. The soul of the dog reaches out to you....through the eyes. So! When she saw my picture, she said: Oh my! Rafferty has ‘the look.’ The soulful, meaningful look in the eyes. She says she could look into those eyes for eternity.
The question is: Could you?! I am a young Boxer mix named Rafferty, and I am a ringer for George Clooney. Maybe even better looking, say Ahimsa volunteers. Handsome, wise, kind eyes. I don’t know who this George Clooney character is, but he must be something special, because Ahimsa folks swoon and say “Be still my heart” when his name is mentioned.
Clooney and I share more than ‘the look.’ We share an Irish last name. Ahimsa had a mighty fine St. Paddy’s day celebration here: all white dogs were dyed green; we all wore our shamrock collars, and the Chihuahua was dressed as a leprechaun for the day. The meaning of Rafferty is ‘prosperity wielder.’ I’m waiting for the ‘prosperity’ part. Spring is here, greenery is lush, spirits are high.....and I await my prosperity in the form of YOU! I’m a very good boy, with mesmerizing eyes, and the hope for a good hearted owner.
Name me Clooney, Paddy, or Shamrock. I don’t care. I just want your love, commitment, and kindly heart. Remember. Go deep into the eyes. You will be hooked.
Rafferty is the one. I promise.
