We call him Gumbo. He is an aristocratic sort, came into a yard full of male dogs and instantly established himself as the boss. Not a bully, simply doesn't suffer fools gladly. Unfortunately, Dixon at times qualifies under that heading. Gumbo, for all his aloof dignity, is a facelicker extraordinaire and rolls on his back to get his belly rubbed, waving his paws in the air in a decidedly undignified manner.
