Something to Brag About

On September 12, 2009 at the age of 19 months, Bruce passed the American Temperament Test Society's exam.  A dog must be a minimum of 18 months to take this test which is a true measure of stable temperament.  Bruce earned very high ratings and is one of just a handful of Frenchies to have the TT designation.  To see Bruce performing the ATTS stations, click here.
