Currently we only have Max a black lab and (malimute?). We got him from the local pet rescue when he was 13 months old. He is a very good dog. He was already house trained even though we got him to be an outside dog, but he spends a lot of time in doors now.  He is 7 years old now and weighs 84 pounds.

I got a call from my wife one Saturday asking me to come down to Wal*Mart. She had a dog she wanted "me to look at" meaning she had already picked him out. Or she said that he picked her out as when she would go over to his cage he would wag his tail and be friendly then when she walked away he would bark until she came back.
