Obviously, we would want any dog staying with us to be friendly with people and dogs. Bleu is very submissive, but also young and friendly. That said, even our older dog friends who aren't so interested in playing, are pretty tolerant of his hopeful attention so as it's ok not to want to run and jump around all day together, too, as long as you can comfortably ignore the boy's attempts to make friends.

We are lucky to live just a mile from Prince William Forest Park and love to hike there with Bleu and friends weekly in every season. Our neighborhood is good for shorter walks as well. Our fenced in back yard is perfect for playing fetch, or just sniffing around and taking in the feeling of being out in the woods.
