Spencer is a darling 8 yr. old boy with a lovely brindle coat and white collar.  He's a stocky bundle of Boston.  He is not a high-energy mischeivious dog.  He's fond of all people.  He's not shown much interest in the curious cats that have checked him out and met his gaze.  He is a good driving companion as long as there is plenty of cold air coming his way.  Sitting in the sun makes him very nervous and causes him to have trouble breathing.  He does have a very long soft palate.  This is common in the breed in general.  His elongated soft palate is more pronounced than most and makes it very difficult for him to breathe when he is under stress or overheated.  He seems to be reliably housetrained.  He is mellow and well-behaved when confined to an exercise pen with his bed and water.
