What these letters mean →View Full Embark Panel →About Banks
Banks is affectionately known as Mr. Banks to us. He is a perfect shade of gold. Technically he is a chocolate based cream long hair. People frequently say that he looks like a tiny Golden Retriever. His coat is absolutely amazing. I am hoping he passes it down to all his pups.
Personality
He is absolutely the most cuddly dog I have ever owned! And that is saying a lot. He loves to lay in bed with me and have his head on my chest. He is also a super fun guy and loves to take off running across the front yard bouncing as he goes. His favorite is leading the other dogs in a game of chase all over the yard.
