DOG REPORT: Isabella (Izzy), Rottweiler, 4 Yrs
by: Eric Boshart
Pictured: Not actual dog
Izzy is the type of dog who will steal a slice of pizza but instead of eating it, will pick it up with her mouth, bring it to you, set it down on the coffee table in front of you and wait for permission to eat it. This combination of two part obedience and one part rascal makes Isabella a dog to watch.
Isabella is a rottweiler but she ain’t mean. Quite the contrary, she is passive and friendly. A complete hilarious mess on hardwood floors, her energy results in half-manic leaping and darting play. When a brief rest overcomes her, her bow-wow sprawl is a delight in its’ awkward contours and facial expressions.
Finally, she seems highly intelligent and well trained. Her instincts for problem solving are uncanny and it is very hard to fool her twice. All of this without the pretense or unsettling glares of understanding other smart dogs have.
Isabella is a good dog. Not mine though.
