The puppy we have had about a week. I had a black lab/ sheppard mix as a child with similar looks so I believe he is the same. He is great with my young (2 and 4 year old) children. He loves to play and explore. My wife found him in a box in the parking lot at a Sonic. We had him checked by a vet and we were told everything was normal. We are both working full time and I do not have the time to put in to housebreaking him or giving him proper care. My kids have named him Lion, but he doesn't answer to anything.
