Bob's Rebar

Bob is very intelligent. We threw a ball. Bob fetched it and dropped it at our feet. He comes when called and answers to his name. He even obes to hand signals. (We continued to call him Bob since he bobs when he is happy) I like to watch him walk with that confident strut.

When he came into our home, he immediately tried countersurfing and then with a firm "Achhh !", he stopped. He obeys, for example: "Go lay down", "Out of the kitchen" (though that one doesn't last a long time before he just has to visit the cook again.

Bob tries to get our Terrier to play, but she is grouchy and this puzzels him, because he's happy all the time.

Another trait that impresses me is when stepped on, or even when he gets a scrape, he doesn't do the DRAMA KING routine. Not a peep comes from this guy.

I just know he will bond closely, quickly and completely to his forever owner.

Bob definitely pulls at my heartstrings. He is such a well rounded dog....loving, playful, sweet and well, handsome...especially his eyes. If you're looking for a wonderful grey, he's the one.
