Hey Everyone, Rudy is my name and playing or snuggling is my game! What more could you ask for!! Let me tell you little bit about myself!
I am a male Petit Basset Griffon Vendeen born around January 2014 and weighing in around 16 - 17 lbs. Here is a little about my breed... Definitely not a hairy Basset Hound, the Petit Basset Griffon Vendéen name in French reveals much about him: Petit- small; Basset- low to the ground; Griffon- rough or wire coated; and Vendéen- the area of France from which he originated. A scent hound, the PBGV is bold and alert with a strong, tapered tail carried like a saber. His long, rough coat should appear casual and tousled. Confident, happy and extroverted, the PBGV is best suited to the active, experienced dog owner with older children and a well-fenced yard. The breed is not a couch potato and needs daily exercise - if not, he may express his displease by using his "hound voice" or creating amusing diversions of his own. Although independent, he is still willing to please. If a PBGV possesses the correct harsh coat, he will require a thorough weekly brush out to stay in condition. I am not sure if all this applies here to me as I am bit more timid but warm up to my person real fast and I really love to just play and cuddle!!
I have learned so much over the past couple weeks already! I learned to play with toys, to chase my other furlegged brothers along with how to Ring Those Bells hanging on back door to go out and Potty! I am just a puppy yet so yes, I still have few accidents but it won't be long now and I will be completely potty trained! I sleep all night in my crate but can't wait to get out in the morning to start my day! And yep, it is busy one!! First I potty, then I eat, then I go back outside and play awhile! I love to chase and play outside but it wears me out and I just like to come in and take a nap!! Do you have a comfy dog bed for me by chance? If not your lap would be fine too! I also love licking on ice cubes! I learned that sound of that ice maker the second day and they are so good!! I still have so much to learn like being able to go on nice walks. I am still scared of the leash/lead so we are doing it little by little. Would you help me learn this too please? I have been told I am a fast learner!
I have already been neutered and had my first set of puppy shots. I know I have more to follow along with being micro chipped soon. I was told this is to help protect me in case I ever get away. I just know though once I find my furever home I will never want to leave!!
