Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Catero LOVES to hang out, relax and watch TV or the yard. He'll spend 20 blissful hours a day on his bed, your couch, or at your feet—not because he lacks personality, but because he's very happy just chillin.
He has the cutest little super black toenails- almost like he has had them painted. We suspect he has some Sharpei in him because his jowls are sort of puffy and the softest you have every felt.
He loves a good meal and walk. He knows sit and is learning a little bit how to not pull on the leash. He really, really wants to catch a deer but seems unfazed about squirrels and birds.
He is 100% potty trained. He is sooo good at holding it and asking to go out.
Catero is a cattle dog mix so he has some of that competitive nature. It's not that he doesn't like other dogs- he just doesn't care about them. He is tolerant of dogs as long as they don't encroach on his space too much so he is probably best as a single dog so he can get all the attention:)
