Thanks. What's funny is I expected him to be a little disruptive, and the only thing I can't seem to get him to stop doing is Licking us. He's been great, and I was never really a big fan of adoption. But he's the man.What a cutie!!! Kudos to you for adopting a dog in need!!
Yep
But we'll call him a Patterdale terrier /Labrador just for argument sake.
What the hell is a petterdale?Yep

no furniture or shoes for him. He loves that porky though.
Thanks man, he's excellent. It's almost to the point where im asking "where's the catch". he's awesome. It would be tight if you were allowed to have dogs,as you probably already know, they bring so much joy into our lives.
Yeah, i thought most places wouldnt adopt pits out. Hope you didnt get a crazy one.They look like really small pitbulls.
Like this...
But he is 100% Apbt. They just listed him as patterdale/lab so he could be adopted and not euthanized. Truth be told we were lucky to get him.
yeah the states. I come from poor areas, so i am used to seeing junkyared pits and fighting dogs. I knew one who ate a bunch of cocaine and was never the same. I have also seen my best friend cry after his pit was put down because of age. If you are canadian I am sure the dog will be treated right.
Just an FYI.... the puppy/dog chewing phase can last up to 2 years. Even if he isn't chewing anything up when you are home... just be warned that dogs who have just come to a new home will get nervous and worried when you leave them the first few times..... and they resort to chewing. Make sure anything you care about is not within reach when you leave.
Also, take care with cords when you leave.... years ago I came home to find the cord of a window air conditioner completely destroyed.... and my dallie had a pretty bad electrical burn on her mouth. Yep... she ate right through the cord and got shocked and burned in the process... she recovered. So anyway... when you start leaving him home... it's probably a good idea to confine him to a room with his bed, toys and water .... and nothing else he can hurt or get hurt by.
