Bob doesn't live with Whetto. Bob lives behind me in a court that Whetto also lives in. There is a Lab in the court, as well as the pitbulls. I think that Bob is a product of that. Bob is treated fairly well. The only thing is that he cowers really easily. I don't know if that's his personality, or if he's been abused. I'm outside all the time, and have never overheard the neighbor hurting him. The neighbor comes over and visits occasionally, and doesn't seem abusive towards Bob. But Bob is really really sensitive.

For instance, when I brought Bob in the house, he started chasing the cats, and I yelled "NO, BOB!" He ran over to me instantly and cowered. Maybe he's just really submissive, but I was surprised to find that a dog with not much attention that doesn't belong to me acted that way.

This last time the neighbor picked up Bob, he asked me why my dogs listen and never run away. I nicely told him that he should neuter Bob and perhaps that'd help.
