I think his personality it just as striking! He needs lots or training and socialising (just barks and barks at any dog he sees and tries to get over too them, but don't think he is aggressive, just no manners!)

Getting ready to bring him home has helped me a lot, I think he is just what I need, the hose is too empty without a dog!

The other week we were looking at the other dogs while waiting to visit Rocco, and they had just got in a pair of Jack Russells (they were sweet together) and I realised right now i could never get a jack Russell as it would feel too much like replacing Buzz, and I would expect them to be like her, which they couldn't be. Really reassured our decision!

Will be great for Russ as Buzz was never his dog, always mine, but Rocco will be our dog from the start and that is great!

Wow he's a handsome chap, I'm sure with good training he will be a wonderful dog. And I'm sure he will help to fill an empty place in your heart.

He may not make it home, vets are not happy with his progress and are not sure what is wrong with him ��

Oh my goodness!

I was so excited to read your news and look at this very handsome dog. Then to read he is not well. Poor dog. Poor you.

It is such a worry that it does not look good. He looked so shiny and bright.

oh no sorry to hear this. And you don't need it on top of what you've been through. Hope everything works out as supposed to be a nice time adopting dogs. The two little ones sounds fab, shame you cant have all 3 to give such a good loving home to ! CB
