Aside from the unusual naked look, he perspires like a person, so you seldom see him with his mouth open. Yes, he does get cold, but has a few shirts and sweaters. His toes are webbed and he uses his front paws in very cat-like ways. His canines point forward rather than down like proper fangs. He has an "Adam's apple" and a lower voice than you might expect.

Many of his vocalizations are extended, modulated sounds, as opposed to barks. He is bright, responsive, and assertively affectionate. He bonds with one human and tolerates most people, but even folks who live in the same house better not seem aggressive toward his master. A good alarm dog and a real delight, all 16 pounds of him. And he did meet the local skunk. ¡Que lástima!
