Candy-if all breeders were like you I don't think we would have the problems with dogs we do in theis country! How excellent of you to follow up on all the pups.

My gut instinct says get the dogs out and rehome it. It sounds as if this family has not done proper training or given the dog proper attention for the first year, and with a new baby I don't belive that will change. I worry things will only get worse for the dog and if they decide to get rid of it, can you be sure they would call you and not drop him at a shelter? Not a chance I would want to take.

The softer side of me then says, give them a chance. Go to their house, work with them, observe how they treat the dog...if after a visit or two it seems they are not doing the dog right, them take him out. Maybe one phone call was exaggerated and things are better then they seem (but with the history from Dixie birthday, maybe not ).

Good luck with your decision. I know you will do what it best for the dog!
