He seemed so nice and sweet and truly this puppy has the best disposition, but he has health concerns that I hope do not get worse. First of all he had Giardia and that took weeks to cure, and then he had some other parasites that caused him to poop ten or twelve times a day, and he needed different meds for that, and now he is getting allergies and his feet are breaking out - so I am closely watching that. I am very dedicated to him and he is the sweetest boy. So I am pleased with his nature and the vet says he's going to be at least 120 pounds when he grows up. I can't say I wish I hadn't bought him as he has this wonderful termperment, and the vet says his overall teeth and position etc of bones looks fine, but I wonder if he was made to sit in poop or to drink muddy water etc. I called the breeder and raised heck with her about this guy, and she claims that she had no idea, well bet me she didn't. I wouldn't trade him for the world. My only caution is to make sure you visit the momma and where the puppies are raised and see if its clean or not. I was just too trusting.
