Jimmy is a pure joy to be around and can best be described as a "gentleman". He loves to "hug" new people and will gently put his feet on your chest, but not in an obnoxious way.  He is a very quiet boy and does not bark unless it's a special occasion to do so.

Jimmy is a real character. He has a quirky way about licking the air and will bring you many types of joys you never imagined.  Jimmy's favorite game is to retrieve a tennis ball.  He loves to squish it in his mouth.  The farther you throw it the happier he is.

Coat: soft, silky and wavy; feathering is present on ears, chest, back of all legs and long on the tail.

Movement: very streamlined; seemingly effortless and very graceful;

Jimmy is a beautiful tri-color Llewellin with a full hood and a few body patches.  He's mostly white with light ticking and tan points on cheeks, above the eyes and some tan ticking on his legs.
