Papitese - Bobby

My Papitese dog Bobby is about one year old. Bob is a very cheerful fun loving dog to have around the house. He is very good with kids and always ready to play.
Bobby definetly has a mind of his own and when disciplined you can't say dogs forgive and forget, he remembers and sometimes tries to discipline back. He's such an amazing addition to our family. though when we looked up a the Papitese mix before buying we expected to have a little sized dog... haha good ol' bob is a whopping 20 pounds. Not just a thicker Papitese but also tall. Sometimes our family jokes that we actually paid for a miniature Bernice mountain dog.
His markings are beautiful he is all white with black ears and a black spot on his behind covering his right cheek, with a long fluffy straight tail that curls up over onto his back. grooming for bob is easy, get him cut about once every 3-5 months to keep his hair from growing out of control. since he is white, we bath him once every week to keep his coat looking nice.
Great dog, training takes a bit of work but work through the knots and a papitese is a great loyal fun loving companion, no matter who is the household.
