What are his/her unique personality characteristics?

Denver’s personality is wild and rambunctious, but stoic at the same time. He’s a loyal boy. He likes to follow me around, but he’s a ravenous eater. He’s tough as nails. And he likes to make that known to the other boys in the yard. He’s just a sweet boy and loves to cuddle inside as well, though.

What is the bloodline?

His bloodline comes from a dog named Flash, who originally came from Mitch Seavey and his mother is a dog named Whisper from Bill Cotter.
