Anyone interested can contact me at mblake at localnet dot com.  Not sure what info on him you would like, but being that he started as a stray, we really don't know much, other than his day to day behavior since he has been here, which has been just over a week now.  He is a wonderful pup, well behaved, and it is very very hard for me not to adopt him permanently myself.

Our best educated guess is that he is about 8 months old.

Congrats on your new "baby" boy!  He's so handsome.  I'll keep my fingers crossed that the transport works out quickly.  I would help out but I doubt Texas is anywhere in the transport agenda.

It's a good thing he likes to ride, because the trip to his new home is almost 40 hours, just in drive time! At this time, it looks like he will be "going on the road" with dad, and meeting Karen and family somewhere in the midwest the last week of April.  I am so glad he is going to have other large pups to play with- he has a wonderful time racing my others around the yard and playing, and would probably be bored if he was going to be an "only child".

I think this must be similar to what *good* breeders feel when they send their puppies to new homes- I am excited for all of them, I miss him already (and he is still right next to me!) but I am satisfied that he is getting the perfect home- if I was not positive of that, he simply would not be going! I am very happy that I will be able to watch him grow up and mature right here on BPO, and through emailed pictures as well *hint hint*  I also know once Karen has him, she is going to be completely hooked on mastiffs, and will want to ALWAYS have at least one in her home for the rest of her life!
