Tommy is doing good, has adjusted well to living in the house with me and my dad and roommate, still needs some training mostly with barking and leash pulling. We've decided to just leave his name the same as Tommy. Over the weekend he got to play for most of the day with my aunts dog Cinder, seemed to have a really good time, slept well that night. Haven't had any problems with him being around other dogs, or kids. Not sure if you can tell me or not, he's always really excited when someone comes home, do you know if he was abused before being given up to the shelter?
