He's a Police Academy flunk out because he's afraid of loud, sharp noises...like gunshots...but he's a sweetie! Interesting bark, I wonder if all Dutchies have this bark or just him. He's been boarding with us for about a month while his owner was recuperating from surgery and everyone has been calling him a shepherd/boxer mix because he's brindle and doesn't look like any shepherds they've seen before. But I talked to the owner today and I was right, it is a Dutch!
