(He's about 15 years now). He's a wonderful 'little man' but very protective and a little eccentric.<BR/><BR/>You cannot:<BR/>Act scared in front of him, or he will take offence<BR/>Look at him while he's in his basket<BR/>Approach a vehicle with him in it<BR/><BR/>You must:<BR/>Walk him if he hears you say "walk"<BR/>Give him company at dinner time or he will ignore his food<BR/>Scratch his belly for hours on end<BR/><BR/>Because my parents manage a vineyard, the little fellow has a big range. I thought that this was why he had such a big opinion of himself. I guess, now, that the breed always considers themselves the Big Dog. (Though in stature, they rarely are). Barkely (our dog) is only put off by cows and horses. Haha!<BR/><BR/>I like your cute picture!
