Thanks for checking in. Jamison (now Beau) is a great dog and we are very happy with him. He has adapted to our family very well, eats good, great with our grandkids, housebroken and seems to be very trainable. We still need to work on some training, but he now sits, shakes hands and will come most of the time. He’s chewed a few things, but that’s to be expected with a Pit mix dog. When we play fetch and let the leash go he always comes back to us and doesn’t run (like our previous shitzu-poodle mix that we had for 17 years!). We really appreciate this!! We love this dog and are so happy that we adopted him.
