Love Kobe he is very,very cute hope you will take him to obedience classes I had a AM Staff many years ago my son named her Chomps she was a black & rust color. She could do a sit stay in front of a squirrel on the ground. Since Kobe is a AM Staff it would be a tremendous advantage if you would get his CGC ( Canine Good Citizen Certificate ) might help with insurance where you live would show everyone he is not a dangerous dog. Good Luck
