Here is the link to the after school video,  I guess it isn't working for some people.
Hope this one does.
Elgin is doing very well.  He is nearly housetrained, I won't call it yet because he has a tough time waiting if he has to poop. He hasn't peed in the house in a very long time, probably since the first week he was here,  and he pooped in the house once in the last three weeks although it was right by the front door.  He needs to poop very soon after he eats so we try to be very attentive to him at that time and he will definitely try to let you know he wants to go out however he loves to go outside so he asks for that a lot. He has been to some of the kids' sporting events and has done well with the crowds.  He lets people approach him and isn't barky at other dogs unless they are huge and then he likes to let them know he's there. We have had no concerns about taking him anywhere,  he fits right in to family life.

Here is Elgin when my son gets home from school.  Two things to keep in mind...i left the door unlatched and my husband was outside on the porch  and secondly, my 1952 wall oven finally died and we are in the middle of a kitchen remodel that's why all that junk is in the background. Please don't judge me on that mess!

 Don't let the 6 year old age frighten you off,  this guy has plenty of energy.

Elgin has settled in very nicely and we are really enjoying having him. He is much more playful and confident. He has a nice routine and is doing very well with his training.



He is just an awesome little guy!

EJ is starting to feel right at home and has become playful. When they are done playing he takes over the dog bed.

Here are just a few more pictures of  Elgin who we have started calling EJ.






 
He loves to sit on someone's lap but he really is just as happy to sit on the couch or ottoman where all the action is.
