Bodacion
Intelligent. energetic. Yours.
Your Bodacion is standing at the back door, spotted coat catching the light, head tilted at precisely the angle that says 'I have calculated seventeen different routes through this yard and I need you to throw the ball so I can test all of them.' This is a dog built from two of the most driven breeds on the planet, one that herds sheep with laser precision and one that ran alongside carriages for a living. You didn't get a couch dog.
