7 month old rescue (the owners, not the dog <img src="http://www.leerburg.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Waiting on the pedigree from Miami. Belgium import with more energy than I have. Dont know what I was thinking taking this one on. This dog has been allowed to run amuck his whole life so I have my work cut out just on the obedience. At least he has ball drive out the wazoo. Name is VIVO! I'm told its spanish for "Life".
or should you re-name him "Pobrecito" (sp?) for having to live with you, who will make him actually WORK for a living rather than having his own merry way...(at least for a minute) <img src="http://www.leerburg.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
he IS a handsome boy though!! i don't know spanish for that though <img src="http://www.leerburg.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Yes, "Live-Wire" is more approriate. We've already had a couple "come to Jesus meetings" because it was obvious he doesn't like to be told what to do. The hardest thing is staying in the mix when he gets ugly with me and decides to impose HIS will on me by turning into a hairy chainsaw. Exciting times <img src="http://www.leerburg.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

You're describing my 4 mo old all black GSD pup...you might like to meet him <img src="http://www.leerburg.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> . Only difference is he doesn't like being told what NOT to do, and turns into a, how did you put it, "hairy chainsaw". Perfect description. It happens less as I work with and train him on what TO do. I've lost 4 pounds since I've had him.
Your pup is beautiful, solid and sturdy looking. And I noticed your posture is excellent as well <img src="http://www.leerburg.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
