Bringing Bobby to Shamrock was a bit serendipitous. We saw a post about him on social media, and so put the word out: If anyone's driving back from Las Vegas, could you bring a 12-pound hitchhiker without thumbs back to Southern California? Turns out some of our friends were at a conference there and said they could! 

Bobby is a dear little man. He's quiet, easygoing, sweet and no trouble at all. His special need: He has early stage kidney disease. He isn't on any meds, just a special diet, which has already helped his kidneys improve. 

He does fine with other small dogs -- we don't know about big ones but we bet he's no trouble -- and hangs with his buddies all day. He would make a loving companion for someone looking for a buddy to chill with while reading, watching TV, crafting or working.
