I have never had such a devoted dog. I so love him. He is still a very high energy, hyperactive "Pup" and and very regimented. The horses and the cats are" his" and he is the boss! Heaven help the person who tries to remove an animal from my barn. ...He will not eat out of a bowl. Bowls are toys and are to be tossed and carried around and any food deposited therein is to be scattered about and eaten off the ground. He is very kind to Bo-our aged Dalmatian .... Thank you for all you do and for allowing RJ to come into my life..

I just love him and am so glad to have him.

Adopted January 12, 2003

RJ was a a very lovable, one year old, little guy (60 pounds) that loved his people and to cuddle with them! He got along well with all dogs, large and small, and all personalities. He was great around cats and horses too! He had a rough beginning to his life and was ready to start over in his forever home with lots of food and love.
