– Flo – at eight weeks old in May 2009. She is a delight but still
has the occasional accident in the house at eleven months. We adopted Gabe in November
2009 at the same age. I can count on one hand the number of accidents he has had
in the house. For some reason, he just seemed more eager to please. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

before (more of a cat person)(please no nasty comments – just being honest),
but I am absolutely crazy about these dogs. They are laid back, funny, loving,
gentle and beautiful creatures and I wouldn’t trade them for anything –
even though they do have a mind of their own. They definitely like long naps after
strenuous playing.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
