The people that gave him back to me, ( he is a dog I as a breeder produced) said he was going to be put to sleep on Monday morning if I didn't take him back, I was going to take him back anyway, I believe his new name should be "Nick" cause everyday after today is his first. |

The owners sound like idiots. They panic and the dog loses. But maybe he won, as long term, he probably would have been unhappy there |

| He looks to be a very Lucky dog, & a handsome one at that! I'm not into LCs, but he's a real cutie! I bet you'll find him a much better home! He looks like he'll not be hard to place, I too, wish him all the best in his new home. Don't you just those those types...take the dog now, or I'll......!!! Low lifes! jackie harris |

| This is a primary reason I have never wanted to breed. No matter how sensible and right people appear to be they can turn out to be completely the opposite further down the line. I know this from interviewing people for rescue dogs. Sometimes one slips through the net. I doubt I would get a minutes peace wondering what was happening to my pups if I were a breeder. Glad you got him back, you were lucky they came back to you, they could have just passed him on or had him PTS. Doesn't bear thinking about. A breeder friend of mine had a dog 'passed on' to someone else by an idiot owner, and she has never been able to establish where she is, the original owner refuses to give that information, despite being begged for the it, just so she can set her mind at rest that she's OK. It's often on her mind. He's a very handsome fellow. Lucky man. |

| Glad you have him back, it's because of idiots like these i will never breed another litter, he is a beautiful lad, wishing him many happy years ahead of being loved and spoilt in the right ways :) |

| He's a pretty boy and should be EASY to rehome. Checkout Puzzleteresa on the general forum. Looking for L/C. BOL Nan |

| Oh my, how could anyone put that gorgeous boy to sleep! It's the owners fault for not being able to handle their dog. Not the dog's fault. I am so glad you got him back. He looks like a sweetie. |

| You are a great dog person |

| Imagine a dog being put down for being a dog. |

| They always look fat to me with all that hair. Good luck finding him a home, since he is probably now a registered nose biter. HA HA Does he work at all ? |

| He's a gorgeous beast! Can you imagine someone wanting to throw him in an incinerator, made me feel sick inside. The previous owner said he would lung at people that approached him when he was on leash, other than that, he loves cats, gets along with other dogs at a doggie daycare, he was just bad on the leash. Well he hasn't lunged at anyone when I'm at the end of the leash, and do you think I'm going to let him, my dogs are all taught at a young age to go over to people and say hello, if they start growling and backing away from people and then you start telling people, when they want to say hello & pet him, OH! you can't do that, and pull him back, then you are letting that behavior fester. The only part that sucks right now is that I have had him since Sunday, today is Tuesday, he is drinking water but won't except any food. This has never happened to me in all my years as a dog breeder, to have a dog returned after the age of two, when the bonding between owner and dog has become unbreakable. He was wearing one of those halter leader things that you put on your dogs nose, I personally don't like or use those, I have him on a prong collar, but use the prong along with his buckle collar for walks, I have two leashes on him, if he were to do something bad, I can correct him with the prong, when we are walking along smoothly, I pay more attention to controlling him with his buckle collar, works nice. He does like me & we go for walks. When should I expect him to start feeling at home and begin to eat? Here he is with his cousin Oeht!  |

| I LOVE him what a stunning boy! Nice dark mask and just stunning colors. Are you planning on keeping him? What a cutie! I know wiith our rescues it usually takes 2 weeks for them to be on a schedule and starting to get settled. Some dogs its longer and others shorter, he's been through alot and probably never had a correction in his days with the other owner so he has some things to get used to now! Amy |

| Glad you got him back. Once again... the dog gets blamed for stupidity of people!! The previous owners should be put to sleep, or incinerated! He is a beaut!! Nice bone, and pigment. |
