So happy for you @maggie3fan ! It really is the most perfect and loveable expression! Congratulations!
Oh, I just melted reading your response Maggie, but I have to argue with you...Bob is genuinely and very sincerely the MOST BEAUTIFUL TORTOISE. I have seen a lot of pretty and very fancy tortoises on this forum and mountains of cute little hatchlings. Everyone, please forgive me, but they are NOTHING to BOB! I want to meet Bob, so I am not shocked to hear that someone drove long distance to meet him! I believe every word you say about his spirit and personality. It is evident in your anecdotes and you're right about this picture.The bond is so clear that it is EXACTLY what my family is aspiring to. Sometime, I'd love to hear more details about the socializing and "work" you did to build your relationship. My whole family is a Bob fan You're so right about the photo. In this picture, he is looking up at HIS person whose company he obviously prefers over everyone. It shows plain as day on his face! I love it so much!!! Thanks for sharing, MaggieThank you!
I know that Bob is not the best looking tortoise there is, but he is more intelligent than most, he's certainly is more trouble prone than most and he has a personality that brought a lady forum member out from Denver to meet him. I'm in Oregon. It was amazing to me. It's not just that I am blinded or putting personality in my imagination on him... Most who meet him say the same thing. He is just different. Dean S. had one like Bob without the trouble prone and very beautiful, but with a different out going personality. I think Tom has one too. One in a thousand Sulcata can be different. It takes work, socialization and bonding. The bonding is evident on Bob's face in that picture...
