My guess was shepherd/elkhound, he looks so much like our shep/elk x growing up that he made me a little weak in the knees to be honest. I told my husband I sure would like to keep him myself... he gave me the look of "Right, and where will you and the dogs live???", two big dogs are enough for him, besides one of our girls is really dog aggressive
I know when he first went downstairs he did pee
But I expected that (I wasn't thrilled none the less), I know when i was still grooming here I never trusted the male dogs around the house - they always tried to mark once
But after that he would go to the door to go out, so yes there was a marking incident - but it didn't appear to be the norm for him
Like I said if I could I'd realy like to have him myself, and I know I wouldn't want to deal w/ housebreaking a new dog, so signals to me would be good sign
He should be at the La Plata Petco this Saturday (email Jacqueli48 to double check), he is definately worth meeting!
Also Jetmonkey, my guess for weight would be 75-80lbs - but Jacqueli48 may have it on the records
