1 Handsome Carter is about 2 years old and 10.5 pounds.
2 What a good walker! He does get anxious with other dogs outside and shows a lot of concern for runners and kids on scooters. He is learning to tolerate more noises and new things outside.
3 Walking skills still need some work, but Carter is becoming more comfortable on a leash.
4 He is quick to show submission by rolling over to show his belly when approached. He is getting better with accepting attention without running away or rolling over immediately.
5 Beautiful boy with a full tail that wags A LOT.
6 Carter like to hang out in the same room as you, but he's also fine staying in another room if there is a comfy bed or pillows to lay on. He's not clingy and just wants a warm spot.
7 If you want to give Carter attention, he gets excited and wags his tail, but might get uneasy with too many head pats right away.
8 Carter loves a fluffy dog bed or sofa pillows for naps throughout the day.
9 That's a look that says, please rub my belly.
10 Carter's vet exam started out hiding in the corner, but after a few minutes and some peanut butter, he accepted the exam and was a very good boy.
11 Ah yes, belly rub positioning.
12 Carter does a few "cat things" including walking along the back of the sofa, laying with his arms tucked in, and pawing at me to get attention.
