*He does carry one copy of the variant for low ALT, which simply means his liver values on blood tests will likely show as lower than normal, but this is not an indicator of his health. Dogs with low ALT should receive a blood test to establish what normal levels look like for them, so there is not a concern if the tests come back lower than normal.

Flinty is the SILLIEST boy! He loves to play, loves attention and is constantly getting the zoomies and flying around the room in the funniest way until he collapses for a nap from shear exhaustion! He is very cuddly when he wants to be, and absolutely loves his belly rubbed. He is such a sweet boy, loves giving kisses, and just generally enjoys life. He loves to eat…. And eat…. And eat! His high food motivation makes him easy to work with and train. He is very clever and picks up on things very quickly! Flint also has a cobby/stocky body which we just love. He is a solid little bugger with a nice high set nose, big loving eyes, a lush coat, nice movement, and the cutest little white chin!
