My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Russell has three legs, but you wouldn't know it when you first meet him. He's just as much a fun loving, puzzle treat solving, blanket burrowing dog as you'll find anywhere. He has high energy and a strong will to protect his people. When he had a yard his favorite job was patrolling the perimeter for any mice that made their way in. (He never caught any). His favorite treat is a little tent that his best toys are stuffed into so he can go digging for bits of treat hidden inside. He also loves to tug on a sturdy rope toy. But he's happiest curled up between legs and lounging after a little walk. A routine is important to Russell, and he is very intelligent. His favorite tricks are shake, spin, down, and snoot (Making an okay sign with your hand and his little nose goes in the hole between thumb and forefinger). He is such a good boy, and when he curls up he looks like a cinnamon role. We have a baby on the way, and have a new chapter to start. We will miss him dearly.
