Armando is truly a joy to be around.....there is nothing he will not try to do and he usually does it well. He is excellent around children and good around people we invite into our home; quite aloof with strangers and a good watch dog.

Armando trying "agility lure" course and loving it!

Right before he went THROUGH the snow fencing to get the lure!

There are many things in life that will capture your eye, but very few will capture your heart. These are the ones to pursue. These are the ones worth keeping.
