He's a sweet dog but he doesn't fit my family. I wanted a dog that's very playful. However, this dog is the opposite. He's shy and likes to hide alot. I've had him over 2 months now and he still trying to hide from me. Maybe he'll do better in your family. He's on kittle diet and soft food diet. I have akc papers and papers from the previous owner. I have 4 generations of his breeders on a certificate.
