Even though he loves to go for walks, he does not need them, very low energy dog.  I can actually pick him up like a baby, belly up and pet his chest and he falls asleep every time.  I have never seen such a mellow dog.  I do not have any children in my home, but he is drawn to the neighborhood kids, loves them.  I wonder if his last home had children. His pictures do not do him justice, everyone that sees him  thinks he is so cute. (me too)
