He's gorgeous.
The thing with smells is, obviously, that what we think is smelly, dogs find absolutely fascinating.
I was out walking a friend's dog with him one day and the dog, off the leash, disappeared into the shrubbery. Cue much thrashing and noise, so we went after him to find out what was going on. It turned out that he'd found a pot of rancid yoghurt, tipped it over, and was wallowing in it. To this day I get sick when I remember the smell. Needless to say, getting it off him was no easy task.

By and large, he's a very good boy. Was found as a stray at two months in Texas. Brought up to New York. Adopted at two months and three weeks after some rehabilitation, given back at three months and three weeks and we adopted him at four months. Obviously he is not going anywhere now as their loss is our gain. They gave him back because (shock) he wasn't happy about being locked in a crate from 8-6 every day. Cunts.
He's been through a lot during his short life so I let him get away with some stuff. But if he takes the piss out of us he gets told off. He's not very loud though which is good. The most noise he makes is when he has a bully stick and can't figure out where to bury it. Just kinda... whimpers. He also barks when he is left alone due to some severe separation anxiety, so he goes to doggy day care five days a week where he is happy. We are working on leaving for a few mins at a time. We've got up to fifteen minutes before he barks, so far :-)
