Best Tricks:
Jump! He's also stands on tiptoe to nose a hand on command (tap) - very cute! Lately, he has learned to spin on command. He tried really hard to get it, but is a bit of a clutz so its not the most graceful in exectution. He is currently learning gimme ten

Arrival Story:
We did a lot of research about papillons before buying one. We wanted a dog that would be playful, smart, affectionate and good with kids and cats - that is definitely a butterfly dog! We went to meet Metro to get more of a sense of what papillons are like in the flesh. We walked in and were immediately in love with the personality shining in his eyes. He's also soooo much cuter than his photo. He came home with us that day, and the cats have yet to forgive us.

Bio:
Metro is a real love bug - very enthusiastic, happy, wanting to play with anyone and everyone. We are looking forward to training him to whisper and teaching him the difference between a chew toy and Mommy's bra.
