too sum billy up he was dopey. we only had him 6 months when he died of kidney failure. he never cried or whimpered throughout it. he was just such a good dog. great big eyes, long floppy ears, curly haired. had so much fun with him whether it was walking or just throwing the ball around the house. he'd always sit up proud when he did something good. when you walked in the door he'd be there waiting for you to come and tickle his belly. he loved that. even over the last few days he made the effort to roll over. he just wanted to lay with you all the time and be cuddled. he just was the perfect dog!!!
