Buds MacKenzie is this little guy's name, running around and barking is his game. He's a Kelpie, so...you know. 

He's little, he's spry, he's suspicious of you. 
Buds isn't one of these dogs that just automatically loves everyone. Oh no, you must EARN his love. How do you do that? With chicken. And space. 
None of this desperate human behavior of reaching to pet him, leaning over to snuggle him, oh no. That will get you barked out of here and into the next state. You've got to play it cool with this spud. 

Once you're in, you're in. Buds will come up and show you his wiggle, waggle, grace you with his tongue and snuggles. 
He likes to play. He'll fetch, but on his own terms. He'll give a playful dog a chase, a bounce. But, if that same dog tries to touch his bone later?? Oh look out. He'll get snarked right out of here and into the next state. 

Buds doesn't care about cats. He'll chase one or two here or there, but he's not out to hurt anybody. 
Kids? He doesn't like em. Unless they can keep it together when they meet him, give him space, and chicken. More chicken. and some more..keep it coming...
