I have the cutest floppy ears! Activity level/Energy Level: (1-10): 6/10 Housetraining Status: I am a puppy so I am working on it! I should do well in a home: I should do well with children of all ages given proper supervision. I should do fine with other dogs given proper introductions and time to adjust.
