Here's what Tim Duncan's previous owners had to say about him...."He is a big personality in a small package. He is spunky and loves to take a walk on a leash and does well when given time. He enjoys just being with his person whether that is hanging out on the couch asleep at their head or being their co pilot on an adventure. He is sometimes a grump but that is just his age. He has a little pur that maybe interpreted incorrectly when he is happy. He will sing with you such as happy birthday or sympathy howl with a tiny human if he is connected to them. He is loyal but does vocally greet people and collect their pets and love." If you’re looking for endless love and entertainment, look no further, they are TWICE the fun! How do I act when I first meet new people? Tim Duncan is a low key dog. He is gentle and quiet. Don't expect him to run up and greet you - he's more likely to wait and watch and approach on his terms. Once he determines you're okay, he will be very happy for you to shower him with pets and affection. Other tips and tidbits: Tim Duncan's birthday is 1/28/2014 House trained?
