When Bear was a wee baby about 6 weeks old, I picked him to be my little boy dog. On the way home, I am checking him over...and saw only a belly button. I told my ex....eeeek they gave us a girl, this is a girl. He slammed on brakes grabbed Bear, turned him over...said ggeeeezzz that is no belly button, he is just very small, don't make him feel bad.
As he grew older, yes he was a male.
