Baby is big and not really the brightest bulb but he loves to run and I guess that's all that really matters. He's reliable and consistent. He's got decent speed and amazing endurance. He doesn't require extra conditioning that some larger dogs need. He is quick to recover after a run and is just as good the second day. He is mainly used as a wheel dog because nothing phases him. He never gets upset if he gets run into a shrub or if he is tripped by the line. He is such a good boy to tolerate such a terrible driver. Another wonderful quality is Baby gets along with all dogs, he is sweet as pie and can make friends with even the most snarly partner.
