Looks like a good dog! And yes, the fun is always tempered with their little quirks.

Here is Laddie, my Welsh Corgi. Now 5 years old. He was a rescue, severely abused when I got him. He was so timid he was terrified of loud, fast moving people and had been punished so much he didn't make a sound for months after I got him. He has since learned to bark at things a little, but not too much. The worst part is that he sheds terribly in the spring. I laugh and say I have enough fur to make another dog!
