He is a proffesional-begger. But he won't steal. He'll just give you the moochy-eyes.
Allergies:
- He is allergic to certain foods.
- All are detailed Here.
- They won't hurt him, just makes him itchy.
- Sometimes the itching never fully stops
- Just try to control it.
Random Stuff:
- Bosco always poops more than once in a session. Just in case you are in a rush to lock him inside for the day, let him run around for 5 minutes after.
- He is great off-leash. Just keep an eye on him. He doesn't fear cars.
- He likes to get into garbage cans, if they have food in them.
- He loves the car, take him anywhere you think is appropriate.
- He can sleep in your bed, or on the floor. He easily seems to grasp which you prefer.
- If you don't want him on the furniture, he listens very well. Just let him know what is appropriate.
- Bosco sometimes growls at screaming / running kids. Don't worry, he just thinks they are stray sheep :). If you see them first, tell him "no", and he won't.
Bosco's Leg:
His left-rear stifle (leg) joint/tenant (patella) come out of alignment in January 2013.
It hasn't happened since February 2013, but in the VERY unlucky event it happens again, he will lie down at an odd time.
If this happens, he may expect you to know how to pop it back.
Simply straighten he legs, and gently slide the tendon back into position.
It should be VERY easy, and require VERY little very gentle effort.
The quicker you can do this, the shorter his recovery time.
If in doubt, don't worry about it.
