Maddux will be five years old in December. He stays un-kenneled during the work day and has never messed anything up. He knows his name (Maddux) and comes when called. He knows all basic commands and will do anything for a treat. He pulls a little at first on a walk but eventually relaxes and it is enjoyable. He sleeps in the car and has gone as long as 3 hour trips at a time no issues. He is a couch/bed potato as long as you are, but is active if you are being active. He is a really really good dog, but needs to be with older children - small children are just unpredictable. We have switched food a couple times and he will eat anything. He doesn't eat the first few days in a new environment and prefers to eat with people. He does well at the groomer also. Never had a haircut, but baths are easy with him.
