This "Shaggy Dog" looking guy is named Snowball.
Snowball is initially shy and not sure of his surroundings. He does come out of his shell when playing with another dog, however.
Snowball came to the BAAC with his brother, Oreo. We decided they would be best to be adopted out separately. Even though they would run and play together, sometimes Snowball would decide to be more dominant over his brother. It's very likely that Snowball was always dominant over Oreo when they were smaller pups and he remained in charge.
With people, Snowball has been very sweet and gentle. He will require grooming several times a year to keep his lengthly coat looking good.
