Bob

[Maggie Cummings]

I take a lot of pictures of Bob and I didn't want to hijack your thread with them...so here is Bob in all his glory. I get invitation to bring Bob to different events, I was paid to bring him to this one..

we arrive and everybody gets really excited...

Bob loves going to these events, he loves being involved with the crowd and having adults pet and touch him but he's not big on having kids pet him. I think that's sad cuz most kids will never have to chance to pet a big tort like Bob. He ignores them and walks away and basically snubs them, but the kids don't know that, I do because I can tell his different moods. Bob is a great tort with a big personality. He's 110 pounds and 14 years old. I have had him since he was 5 yrs and already pyramided. It's really fun to take him to sit on Santa's lap and get his picture taken. They can pay $5 to have kids pix with Bob too for the Senior Dog Rescue. Here's my favorite pix of Bob, I guess I should have posted one with Santa...but I didn't...So here's Bob affectionately known as King Robert III

You said you got bob when he was 5 years old? Was he shy then? Or has he always been friendly with others?

Bob is cool.

He has the best golden colored shell! You say he snubs the kids, how does he feel about dogs?

Bob has always been friendly and outgoing. He's always been a show off.

He has no fear of dogs, look at all the dogs around him in the pictures, he doesn't care at all about them. That one dog (Lily) just jumped on him and stayed for about 15 minutes as Bob walked around. Bob didn't care at all. He has no fear of dogs...
