He wants to play with toys and wrestle with dogs. Buck likes his belly rubbed and is a sleeper! Often needs someone to get him up in the morning! Loves to lounge. He is also skittish and protective. Needs guidance with his barking. He's large but still a puppy who needs more training. Buck is a loveable and sweet dog.
