We had a visiting dog last week-end and this dog is as close to the perfect dog as one can get. He understood what I asked him to do and he was able to let me know exactly what he needed and when. He was a true gentleman and accepted the fact that he had to stay with us until hims Mom came to pick him up. We knew he was looking for her and yet he joined in the playing and ate his food. Have you ever met a dog like this that was as polite as an old Southern Gentleman and still fun to be with?

I came across the little fairy three months ago. It's a white dog.Now it's 4 months old.But it's so clever.I think it's IQ is not low than the 4 years old baby.It can take a delight to me everyday and when it sit next to me i can read many things from its eyes , including its happyness and gloom.When it is ill, i am so worried about it.I remembered every minute when we played together.I will take good care of it .It's our human's good friend :)

I used to have one many years ago he was wonderful Gissi can be a Gentlemen when he wants to lol but his Mischief lets him down and also his stubbornness, but it is why he is so special to me because the way he is, it reminds me so much of my Children when they where little lol and that is what this little Fellow is a mischievous Toddler, but he also knows when he has to listen even though he will still have the last word

Yes, I have known and do know of a dog with the polite manners as you described and who is also fun to be with. Good for you for being able to read the dog so to understand the dogs needs. Not everyone has this empathetic skill. I commend you. My brothers dog is very similar. The dog can be with others while waiting and knowing who his handlers are. Yet he is fun, playful and very smart with many different expressions. Lucky for you savypat, that you get to be accompanied by such a joyful companion, even if it is part time. Enjoy!

I had ever had a lovely god just like yours. The only one difference from human is that he can not speak to me. I liked it so much and see him just like my younger brother.

Yes, you read about Budder. Well, I have a Large Standard Black Poodle named Captain. He just had his 10th birthday and has always been a Gentleman. All our Friends love to be around him.

We have had two poodles join us on life's journey and their intelligence an joy of life can't help but bring pleasure to you. We can only have very short haired dogs where we are now. Thanks

I have been around some very good dogs but none as pleasant as the one your talking about. Sounds like he has been well trained. Some dogs are very intelligent and have a lot of potential. Tapping in on that is key. I just love dogs.
