And I understand everyones comments,I just didnt think there would be some many negative comments.My moms other dog is the same age. They get along great. And there is no hurry or push on anyone. anyone interested can just meet him and they will see how he. He is great with my children. He is not viscous at all.

I agree with BamaGirl. The best thing for unwanted dogs, especially purebreds, is a breed-specific rescue group. the argument from a private owner that someone will take better care of a dog if they have to pay for them is specious. Rescue groups will charge a fee and make sure that the dog has a proper home better than a private owner could, any day. The "rehoming" fee just sounds like the dog's owner is trying to recoup some of her costs.
