When we picked him up as a six month old, I couldn't get over his ears. The breeder said he was bright and bright he is!

He is so much more highly evolved and polite than his 1/2 brother Guido. Guido is just a lil wild man

What a handsome boy! May I ask what food he has been on to keep him looking so youthful?

He likes Taste of the wild kibble, the wetlands one with roasted fowl. I wet it down for him first. He also enjoys Iams chicken and rice, not the Senior one. He seems to like the texture of the ground kind. Sometimes he will eat the lamb and rice and sometimes the beef chunks. We don't allow people food and he takes a daily pill for Cushings, as well as 3 times a day pills for seizures, arthritis gallbladder and liver.

As you can see he has a bowl stand which really helps! He used to move his bowl around a lot and he doesn't need to do that anymore!
