Portrait of a Bear

[Mad Aussie]

MA, the vet figures he's about 2 years old and he has a really gentle soft temperament for a BC....but he does love to run, especially into water then out onto land!

And then roll in the dirt ...then drop into any small puddle he can find, even if it's a bit of water left in the gutter next to the road. Yep ... sounds like our Sooty. He was also amazingly good and gentle with people and children.

LOL...if there is a mud puddle to be found, my white dog is in it for sure!Last week he laid down in a really nasty deep goopy muddy one and I had to ask a lady if I could borrow her hose to wash him down...which went over like a lead balloon for him. No way he coming into my new house looking like that! The mud was caked on him!!!
He loooves the ladies but is quite unsure and skittish around kids and men right now (and cigarette smokers...won't go near them if they have a smoke in their hand....which is okay in my book ) but I'm going to get a trainer to work the men stuff.

Lovely pictures and story. Looks like the two of you are real happy. Must be fate or good karma that brought you together.
