RIP Amos

10/10/2001 - 8/4/2013

Hello there, I'm Amos, Complete K-9 Academy's most requested Demo Dog - now retired.

I'm an English Bulldog therefore Stubborn is my middle name. Or at least those were the days. I remember when I was a little pup... not listening was my favorite thing in the world. I used to drive Gaby insane! She used to say sometimes that if she could train a stubborn Bulldog like me she could take on just about any dog after me. I was a fun puppy and although Gaby taught me a lot I ended up teaching her more about patience that she ever thought she needed to learn.

I'm a model citizen today and probably one of the few English Bulldogs you will ever have the honor to meet that speaks German and English, works off leash in obedience, goes tracking, bike riding and swimming and does, get this - Personal protection (or at least I look cool doing it)! I'm definitely not your average couch potato and a day without work is a day wasted for me. I'm a true Bulldog!!!

I'm getting old now and the days of me working as Complete K-9 Academy's demo dog are far but few now. I recently had an extensive knee surgery so I'm taking it easy and trying to conform to what the breed book says Bulldogs should be like - lazy and slow. So far it's not working too good and I admit I'm not really trying. I'm a die hard workaholic.

Since my retirement I have been enjoying more time for myself. An old veteran like me has a lot of things to do so I'm taking it nice and easy and what better place to retire in but here in beautiful Fort Myers.

To all of you out there that believe Bulldogs are lazy, stubborn and stupid I have to say: "You haven't met me, yet!"

Update: Amos has asked me to inform you that he is planning on making a major comeback. He has been working hard lifting weights, walking on the treadmill (seriously!), swimming laps and drinking his protein shakes.
