Bandit is a great family dog.  He bonds easily with families (with or without children).  Very gentle, Bandit willingly comes up for hugs and kisses and will often sit down next to our feet for affection. He makes funny cooing, grunting noises.  He will sometimes howl, but is usually very quiet at home and will not disturb neighbors.  He follows his people around loyally.  Bandit communicates via scratching at doors to go out.  He's a fast learner and very intelligent. Bandit gets along with all dogs, cats, or other pets.  He enjoys going out in the car or outside excursions and is easy on the leash when out for a walk.  Bandit is fully house broken and at night sleeps in his crate.
