Getting my boy back

Melissa_PQHorse · 07-12-2007, 05:32 PM

Okay, earlier this year my husband and I got a puppy. I believe him to be Staffie/Pit but for 'reasons' we call him a catahoula/boxer cross (amazing how much calmer people are around him

)
Anyway, my husband and I had decided at the time (mainly my husband) that we didn't have time for a puppy so I started the job of finding him a suitable home.
We did find a woman with a wonderful family who came to meet him and loved him. After he was gone our schedules ended up changing so we have more time but still we didn't go out and rush to get another puppy. Well recently, the woman we homed him with found out they are going to have to move, the residence they are being sent to has a no dog policy so she offered him back to me. It's been five months and he's grown. Sadly they did not continue with his obedience training but that's not a problem as I can start that up again as soon as he's 'resettled'.

Anyway, here are some puppy pictures followed by adult pictures.

Edited to add that last picture looks intense but that's his 'I'm SO about to bounce around and play" look.

What a cutie, love the eyes!!! You got to love that intense look that pitties get when they are getting ready to start some kinda mischief. Mine do the same thing.
