I was originally looking for a girl. I found a beautiful little girl but she was absolutely hyper. I continued my search and found Darwin, I loved his looks and he fell asleep in my arms the first time I met him - I was hooked. I raised Bengals for years, they are an extremely active breed of cat and had my Doberman for 13 1/2 years. My Dobie was extremely hyper until she was four. I was ready for a calm, laid back pup and Darwin is perfect for us. He does his zoomies once in a while but he's not constantly moving. He has turned out to be exactly what I wanted. Good luck with your search!
