Einstein had his first trip to PetSmart last night.  My daughter works there and she was so excited to have him there!  He really got the attention.  I was so amazed at how calm he was.  After he got past the automatic doors, he was great.  Very tolerant of the people petting him and other furkids sniffing him.   

When we got home, since we had a new collar and leash, we walked down the street a ways.  When we turned back, he knew exactly which driveway and went directly to the door -- turns out he was hungry!  He ate two bowls of his new food.  He does seem a little on the thin side, so I didn't mind.  We're going to the vet tomorrow afternoon and I'll get his/her advice on quantity.

Still hasn't barked except to let me know he's still out in the yard or to say goodbye.

I haven't measured him, but I'm six foot tall and when he walks up to me I don't have to bend down to scratch behind his ears.  Tomorrow at the vets we'll find out more.

By the way, I'm convinced now he is a South Russian Ovcharka (even though I can't pronouce it).  Thank you to everyone who noticed that.

I was looking at a website on that breed they are also called Russian Sheepdog, I can't pronounce Ovcharka either.  :) They are such beautiful dogs. And it was very interesting to read about the history of them as well. Anyway your pup came to mind and I really think that what you have is South Russian Ovcharka as well.

Wow!  He certainly is a head turner!  He may get a little more energetic once he settles in, gets up to weight and gets comfortable.  It does take a lot of energy to recover and get used to a new home, esp if he spent some time at the pound or had a foster home in between.  Thanks for all those pics!  He is GORGEOUS!!!!!!!
