The adoption people estimated between 1 and 2 years old...although I think they say that about all their dogs because people dont want to adopt a "senior". I think they can only estimate it on the state of their teeth anyway but his teeth are still very white so I think they are probably pretty accurate. Apparently he came out of a high kill shelter from Ohio on West Virginia border. His papers into the shelter in OH were dated 2/7. By 2/12 he was in a new home in NJ.... So far he appears to be an amazing dog.....just wants to lay on his back all day and get his belly rubbed....would love to find out what his circumstances were that he found himself in a shelter....He's seems perfect in every way so far. My 7 year old that weighs 15 pounds less than the dog can walk him on a leash everywhere....have left him alone in the house with no accidents, sleeps like a log all night, stands at the door when he wants to go out or in.....lays patiently by the table while we are eating hoping for something to get tossed to him....so far so good!
