Story
Bubbles is AMAZING! He loves his people, is an expert snuggler, is a DREAM on the leash, AND can be groomed with clippers by novices without restraint?! Ok, ok, so he isn’t perfect. It would not be fair to the rest of the dogs if he were. His flaws: He loves his people. And hates being kennelled away from them. Also, he’s got a minor incontinence issue, where he dribbles a bit of urine sometimes. He is otherwise house-trained and doesn’t mind wearing his belly bands.
In December 2025, Bubbles suffered a back injury and developed some issues related to it, but has been healing well at POOCH. We cannot guarantee that this urine dribbling will be a symptom that goes away, so we figured it would be best to assume it will be a chronic concern. As he is now past injury restrictions and still has a few moments of dribbling, we believe this is something he will have for the length of his life. We also recommend that care be taken to prevent future injury (use stairs for the couch, avoid large jumps, and support with lifting when needed). His dribbling urine is more frequent after he has been holding his bladder.
Beyond that, he is an excellent little guy. He rides well in the car and loves to be your co-pilot. We have taken him with us on a few errands, and he is happy to ride shotgun and enjoy the breeze. He sits politely while we groom him, and we are most definitely novices. He prefers clippers to scissors (what man doesn’t have his preferences), but allows everywhere to be clipped, including his head, ears, and muzzle. He has been around many other dogs and can play or just hang out politely. He is a vocal player, both with other dogs and when he is entertaining himself.
