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.

Does this dog still need a home? I know someone looking for an older dog to adopt. PM me if he is still available and maybe I can help place him.

Update: Spoke with Jean (PAWS) this morning. Our little friend has an appointment for 5:30 this evening for a check-up and the obligatory shots etc. Thanks Jean. She said I could bring him in Friday morning to have him neutered (sorry buddy). Meanwhile here's a link to another video of him interacting with kids and an unexpected cat encounter with him. Like everything else so far, he handle it well.

Yeah, the cat's name is Truck. He was a stray that adopted the boys a couple years ago as a kitten. He somehow survived the twin terrors. No wonder he didn't flinch at the site of the dog.

I hope this works out. This poor dog is so nervous about walking down the docks to get on or off our boat. He was OK with it at first but after a near mishap getting him off the boat the other day, he no longer enjoys the prospect. I usually just end up carrying him the whole way so he doesn't have to shake & shiver.

Just got back. All is well.

Tested negative for heartworms, lime disease along with a few other things I couldn't pronounce, much less spell. He also received his vaccinations. He is about a year old, 50 lbs. Did well at the clinic with other animals about and being poked and prodded by the very nice vets. He goes in for neutering Friday morning. So I'd say this guy is ready for a good home anytime now!
