More: We rescued Ichigo when he was one year old and he’s still as much of a puppy at almost 10 as he was when we got him. He loves to play ball and is one of the few dogs that I have ever known who doesn’t tear the squeaker out of squeaky toys! He also has a deep-seated hatred of skateboarders and his frenzied barking at them can sometimes startle them so much that they come to an abrupt stop! It’s always funny to see this little 15 pound dog knock boys and men off their boards!
