Awwwe, he looks like such a sweetie. Thanks for taking him in :- )

I love the pic of Leo! It looks like a paw print on his back!

I say to keep Taggart if that's what your heart is telling you. On a promise i made before i started fostering a kitty i forced myself to get rid of her. It was a HUGE mistake. A regrettable one. We still grieve over the loss of her. She was a good addition to our household. That was six years ago. As someone who's been there I urge to to seriously consider how you'd feel with out Taggart in your life. Don't end up making the same mistake we did. If you do find another home for him make absolutely sure it is the right home for him. Make sure you'll get to see him again. Listen you your gut when you're placing him. If you get any bad feeling don't go through with it!

Good luck to him on facing his fears!!!

And as i said in the other thread, personally i think he looks a LOT like a Shelti mix.

I'm not fostering him through any organisation or shelter. The mother of a friend of mine picked him up (well actually kidnapped him..)and because her Samoyed is quite dog aggressive she couldn't keep him at her house and so she called me.
The owners live next door to my friends grandmother and she says he is constantly kept on a leash outside and never taken for walks or anything.. He has also clearly not been fed very much.
If he has ever been inside it has got have been a basement or something because I seriously doubt he has ever seen the inside of a proper house before.. He gets scared of the television, water faucet, telephone.. you name it.

But still, he is such a sweet dog and he learns extremely fast. He has only been here since Thursday and already knows sit, lay down and shake. He also knows to sit down and wait before the door is opened and before the food is served.

He loves to play with Tiki and is also starting to invite Leo to play (at first he was terrified of Leo)

He’s definitely a mixed breed.. You’re welcome to take a guess to what kind. I am saying Border Collie/something The vet said he was about a year old.

Anyway. On with the pictures. Sorry for the bad quality. I use my video camera to take pictures because I don't own a regular digital camera.
