We rescued Rico/ Rick from a pet shelter. He settled down within 2 weeks. However, he continues to be aggressive with our cats. He also tries to "herd" people by running up behind them and nipping at the back of their legs. He can be really adorable and affectionate with a lot of licking and nuzzling. He is very eager to please and stands at stiff attention when he is told to sit. He loves the outdoors and is most calm when he is outside and perched in a spot where he can survey the landscape. He runs like lightning when a deer approaches the yard and he chases it away with speed and agility. He is a great watch dog and will bark when strangers approach the property. He will come back to you if he thinks he is going for a ride in the car. He loves to go for rides and looks out the windows at the passing cars as if they are large cows or something he wants to chase. At night he settles down in front of the TELEVISION and at bedtime he sleeps on a dog bed or near the door.<br/>
