holy crap hastingsrj... does he still have puppies?? if he is or his parents still do, we'd love a pup out of him or his parents. He looks a LOT like our ginger but she's fixed cause we got her from the Humane Society and that's a stipulation... all pets go out spayed or neutered prior to adoption.
We've been thinking of getting another dog and the wife wants one that looks just like Ginger and yours is the closest I've seen. That amazing.
And ours licks EVERYTHING. Heck, I thought maybe she was brought up by cats on the street something with the way she licks/cleans herself. And licks you everytime you stop rubbing her. I think it's funny.
