Joey

Joey was born May 20, 2006, considering that he's the only dog in the house and the smallest, he is used to being around young adults and adults more frequently than children. He is a quick learner, he does the basic training, he loves going outside and playing ball with us.

He's spoiled from everyone in the family which makes him very hyperactive dog, although he can have a very loud bark and gets too excited too quickly. The only thing is that he hates it whenever someone leaves the house, I think he feels afraid that we're only going to leave him.

When it comes to taking him to the vet, he lets out this horrific ordor from his behind that make him smell like fish. The vet has mentioned that dogs tend to spray that out as a sign that they're scared.

But I love him! he's a very loyal obedient friendly dog that loves to play and make everyone happy! I can't imagine my life without him!
