He is completely house trained and has a calm personality. He does not shed and we keep him groomed regularly. We will be happy to host dogs with similar nature and characteristics. Auggie is scared of stairs and doesn’t like to climb them . Although we walk Auggie everyday, he is always ready to play fetch (actually he does not fetch..he goes after the ball, grabs it, and waits for you to come get it and chuck it again..oops). He can be a finicky eater at times, and is always more curious about what is on our plate, and why it is not in his bowl. He has mastered the fine art of “puppy eyes”, that we have fallen for many times.
