Grace is gorgous!!!!! OK here is the whole story..... Iggy is our 2nd Saint but the first one we only had for 2 months. We had a girl - Roxy. We got her in February when she was just seven weeks old. We had her for 2 months and we were in the front yard and the neighbor had a friend over and her lead got caught under the tire and when the woman back out, she ran over Roxy!!!We rushed her to the emergency vet hospital where she died. They did everything they could to save her. It was the most horrible thing that has ever happened to us! So anyway.....aft er about a month I had to get another one! We had her for such a short time but she became a huge part of our life! There were no breeders around us (Rochester, NY) that were having pups until the fall and there is no way we were gonna train a huge dog in the middle of winter. I finally found a breeder in West Virginia that had smooth coats so we took a ride out there and that where we got Iggy!!!!!!! I must tell you he is the most well behaved dog I have ever seen. He is only 5 months old but he is so good. He's not a chewer and never barks unless he wants our attention VERY badly!He was the runt of the litter but I still think he is gonna be big. He went to the vet on Saturday and he was 62lbs. I love him! He's my baby boy.
