He is great with the kids and most female dogs. Needless to say, we do not let him off his leash often.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12908345188374273733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8095068418828488278.post-23428649077310003882009-12-10T10:54:11.165-06:002009-12-10T10:54:11.165-06:00I was reading and enjoying your story and then I s...I was reading and enjoying your story and then I saw my name in the "these people won" list, and my heart skipped a beat.
