Thanks to all for the comments. They are good dogs. Of course each one has it's own temperament and they are not perfect. They get along great. People are always surprised to know that the males get along. The Rottie is 8.5, the male BB is 2.5 and the Brindle puppy is almost 7 months. I feel fortunate as I hear horror stories about male dogs trying to kill eah other. As for carpet comment, there is hair, just very well camouflaged. I guess it does help to vaccuum also as it needs it when there are 4 dogs in the house. I enjoy seeing pics of all the other dogs posted.
