Gabe is doing fine. As he has grown we think a big part of him is collie, based on physical appearance. The rest of the mix might include Lab / Golden, anyone's guess. He is high energy and helped by another puppy, Maggie, we adopted in November from another rescue here in Chester County, we did check your site first at that time. They get along well and expend much puppy energy tearing into one another. Wanting to wait until the youngest was six months combined with some travel we had planned, we just now have them oriented to the underground fence. Gabe has breached it a couple of times but think we have him on track now. What a great opportunity it gives the two of them to run around like a couple of maniacs, burn off that energy, stretch and exercise those muscles. The rear and one side of our lot is wooded and both are trained to do their business there, not once since gaining the freedom (still supervised at this point)of the yard have they faltered in this discipline. Shortly after putting away their crates we began to have some destructive behaviors, a sofa and the coffee table, first when left with a pet / house sitter and again when left for more than one hour by themselves. Still working on this issue.
