Foster Feature -- Juicebox Bobby

Looking for a big boy??  Then Juicebox Bobby is your hound!!

He is one tall drink of water and so sweet!

Bobby has adapted to home life quickly.  He is playing with the other dogs and toys.  Bobby crates very well and is quiet while in his crate.  He will even hang out in the open crate when he does not have to.  Bobby is very affectionate and always glad to see me, whether I have been gone hours or 5 minutes.  He likes to mouth my hand and arm in greeting.  He is learning to navigate the stairs to the second floor--up is ok, but down is pretty scary!!

It is easy for Bobby to see what's cookin'
