Presenting Luca!

These are photos of our baby boy Luca, a Rottweiler X Shepherd. We adopted him from the local animal shelter on 4 Nov 2006. He was 18 months, very boisterous and was scared of the car. Two months later he's relaxed, comes over and sits every time we call him, does not jump up, waits to be told to eat his dinner even when it's right under his nose, knows how to drop, stay, fetch toys and even shake hands. Oh, and he jumps in the car now. He's scared of other dogs, probably because he was never socialised as a pup, and also because he was attacked by a pit bull and lost the tip of his left ear. He was even scared of a tiny Chihuahua. He's getting better though, he now has a girlfriend (my friend's gentle German shepherd).

Luca is a big sook and loves rubs from everyone.
