The way you described Sir Theo is identical to how Otis behaved when I first got him.
He didn't like to play with toys, he stood there and stared at me for hours, never chewed, never had any accidents, never cried.
Otis is now 6, and he's the perfect gentleman. I can take him anywhere and he doesn't annoy anyone (as far as I know), doens't jump, doesn't have accidents, doesn't yap. In fact, I wouldn't want him any other way. He's extremely low-maintenance and doesn't get into things.
Just be grateful that Sir Theo does not have the typical small-dog complex, which many people are turned off to. Personally, I'd rather have a dog that's calm and well-behaved than one who is overly curious and gets into things.
Congrats on the new puppy, and appreciate him for what he is! They don't make 'em that way very often! |
