Levi, the Dog of the Day
Name: Levi
Age: Three years old
Gender: Male Breed: Border Collie mix
Home: Austin, Texas, USA
 
   The people at the pound told me Levi was picked up by the Police and I'm sure he just jumped into their car. He loves the car and loves going everywhere with me. He is very "conversational" and while his growly bark sounds ferocious, he's very sweet with me and with other dogs. He can be outdoorsy, but prefers to be pampered. And when he crosses his paws, he looks so dignified.

    Levi is a mama's dog. He's very affectionate, shadowing me all over the house and wanting to be in my lap. That's probably partly due to the herding Border Collie trait too. When he goes to a new place he checks out the perimeter before socializing. That, and his black and white markings make me sometimes call him a little police-dog. He's somewhat on the goofy side too, rolling around on his back growling and squawking when he wants attention, and eating things off the patio like sticks, and bugs and even rocks. He's a mutt with manners.
