Russell is my boy and I see him as perfect so I asked some friends and family to describe him and these are their words:  Willful, flamboyant, high spirited, sensitive, cocky, animated, energetic, happy go lucky, intelligent. Russell loves people and his greeting to all is with a toy (he prefers a shoe)  in his mouth.  He wags his tail so hard his entire body gets wiggling.  Once he is content with the greeting he drops the toy (shoe) and off he goes. He competes in agility and has his Agility Dog Of Canada title.   He received his novice, intermediate and advanced trick dog certificates but we went no further with that. We have done no trick work since he received his certificates. He competed in his first Barn Hunt trial in September 2022, he did some training in tracking and scent detection.  He is a fun loving boy who is living his life to the fullest.
