Gonzo... he's perfect. He is a total velcro dog and listens to every word I say, and I wouldn't want him to be any other way. Everyone is amazed at how attentive, smart and loyal he is, he'd lay down his life for family. He's outgoing and ready to do whatever I'm doing. It KILLS him if he senses that I'm not happy, and he'll jump on my lap and stare at me until I laugh at him. He knows what I'm thinking without saying a word. He is not anyone's best friend right off-the-bat (in most cases), but if he meets you once and you show him that you love him, he'll ALWAYS be your friend and ALWAYS recognize you. My cousin visited from SoCal when Gonzo was 8 months old, and 1 year later when she returned he knew who she was right away and he always will. He is an amazing judge of character. He's always ready to go out & run like a real BC, but he's even happier to just hang out and play in the house. We have 649271901 wierd games that only he and myself understand, he can always always make me laugh. ^_^
