My pup is 4 months now and I know what people on here say about his dogs and the conditions they live in. Some of his dogs probably dont go to homes much better after leaving him. But anyways I have got her and Im a firm believer that a dog is what you make it. Since day one she has fitted right in with my shepherd , cats and kiddies. She was crate broken in an hour and house trained in a day. Retrieving too hand from the first day i got her , sits , down position and walking to the heel. Not saying she is 100% yet but she is clever and out on walks if she does clock birds, rabbits and squirre
