Bessie is smaller of the two and will jump on you for attention. She was quite a whirlwind of activity when I first came into the yard and settled a bit, although she was still running and trying to find sticks or pushing Buddy out of the way to get a pat or scratch. She is a digger and there were some good holes to confirm the habit. I believe this is probably due to boredom and being displaced out of the home. They did have invisible fencing at their old house, and the dogs did well on that system per Tina. They have been 1.5 years at this house but only since the baby (6-months-old) have they been relegated to outdoors. Both dogs are crate-trained, very good with children and other dogs. They do bark at the neighbors’ cat but have not been truly tested around cats.
