I'm guessing about 35lbs. Introduced to to another male dog yesterday. It went well. The other dog was smaller than him and when the dogs were startled by tangled leashes the smaller dog growled. This one became submissive and rolled over on his back. Everything I've seen so far has shown this pooch to be very gentle in nature, including taking a treat from your hand. As for kids, he's about to meet my twin step grandson's (7yrs old) this afternoon. If he passes this test with these two boys that will mean he can handle anything. These boys are wound-for-sound to say the least. No, he has not been nuetered yet but that's easily remedied. Trying to make appointment at Calvert Well Pet Clinic for Wed. for a check-up etc.

YES! Definitely housebroken - Does he travel well? See pics in previous post. He is a little nervous about getting in & out of my truck but he's already getting used to the idea. Once we're underway he loves watch the world go bye through the window.

Okay, let me know how he does with your "Double Trouble" LOL. If he is okay with them, I'm sure he will be fine around my Granddaughters. Drop me a PM on Wednesday and let me know how the check up went. We may be very interested in adopting him. At least we could give it a try to see how he is with my granddog.

That was easier than a Staples EASY BUTTON! Thanks. (The private message thingy)

For those who are wondering how this dog may handle himself around children: Here's a link to a video. (Hope this works)

Considering my grandson Aric still has all of his fingers, I tend to agree. I do know that if he put his hands that close to my mouth while I was munching on something like Ledos pizza, I would have taken a couple off. Nobody gets between me and my Ledos!
