Caissie Canine Instruction: K9 Trivia

We begin this week’s “RUFF TAILS” featuring a beautiful 3-year-old Labrador Cross named Royal.

I am a rescue from San Antonia, Texas. My family describes me as a “bull in the China shop kind of guy.” On my walks, I desperately want to socialize with other dogs, I have made peace with the squirrels, but I am in constant pursuit of the neighbourhood cats.

My family says I am affectionate and playful. I am working on “engagement” with my family during walks and learning not to jump up on everyone I meet. At home my family says I am an energetic soul and I cling to my family to secretly look for ways to trick them into endless back and belly scratches.

My mom says that sadly my endless attempts to curl up into their laps, end in utter failure each and every time. LOL.
