- Any vehicle, regardless of size, designed to transport 16 or more persons, including the driver.

Look into Prime and Swift. I think they're both hiring from your area. I'm sure there are others, but those two come to mind right now. They both offer Paid CDL Training Programs.

Wil-Trans has a liberal pet policy as does Jim Palmer.
Wil-Trans:
Darrel Wilson bought his first tractor in 1980 at age 20, but, being too young to meet OTR age requirements, he leased the truck out and hired a driver.
Through growth and acquisition, Wil-Trans now employs over 200 drivers, and has a long-standing partnership with Prime, Inc. to haul their refrigerated freight. The family of businesses also includes Jim Palmer Trucking and O & S Trucking.

Liberal as in - will they take an 85lb well behaved Rottie?

“Yes, we have a very pet friendly program with no breed restrictions. We understand the positive benefits for drivers on the road that come with companionship.” Quoted from Jim Palmers website.

CFI has a liberal pet policy. I think the deposit is $500. I don't know if it needs to be paid at once or if they will payroll deduct it over time. They offer free training and you are looking at a minimum of about 9 weeks from the day you get to school to the day you upgrade and can get your dog.
