His previous position was with the Wake County SPCA for about two weeks where he boned up on valuable skills that he will bring to the Light Reading team, such as "sit," "come" and "fetch."

"In addition to those questions, we can now answer, 'Who's a good boy? Whooooo's a gooood booooy?' This is a great day for Light Reading."

Finley is unavailable for briefings at the top of each hour as he is tasked with barking back breaking news on runners, passing cars, delivery trucks, squirrels and solicitors from the Living Room Picture Window field office.
