Patrick passed his temperament test at the boarding place we use. A grumpy beagle and a grumpy beagle/basset mix both snapped at him, and my good natured little guy just said 'okay' and went about his business. Patrick proves without a doubt that the only thing better than 1 Roo is 2 Roos. The boarding place has redone the way they do things now and big dogs are now with only big dogs, small dogs together. Where do the bassets go, you ask? With the small dogs. So Zeus, Rainie and Patrick will be together but poor Gus will be by himself with the big dogs. They'll start them out together, though and ease him into it. I'm sure glad it's just for 1 night.
