Bobbie came in on the 20th of December as she was unwanted.
Bobbie is a big, bouncy girl who still acts like a puppy! She knows her name, sit and beg on command and is clean in her kennel so should be housetrained. She can be very strong and boisterous on the lead when excited. Bobbie is good when groomed and she loves a cuddle!
She can be very vocal with other dogs and is not keen on little dogs. She is ok with larger dogs after a good introduction. Not good with cats. She will need to be the only pet in the home as she is very food orientated and can be possessive of food with other animals.
She would benefit from a breed experienced home and could live with older children.
