@ nine months old. He's turning into an awesome dog. The amount of people who see him and divert course or cross the road is disappointing.
What, you mean you want to have to talk to people? A dog that auto-socially isolates randoms sounds highly useful.

Nah, he loves meeting people and getting a quick pat from them.

Like Labs they have their good point and bad point:-
Good: Loves food so easy to train.
Bad: Loves food so can easily get fat.
Enjoy mate, it will all be fantastic, even the little accidents around the house in the first few weeks.

@catogrande yeah, I'm a bit nervous to juggle it all. The wife won't be much use, this is very much my pup to look after. Hopefully that pays dividends though. I haven't had a dog since I was 13 so can't wait. And the kids are obviously pretty excited.

Golden Retriever pup arriving in 8 days. First family dog. Voodoo clan very excited
I've looked after one, didn't think they are quite so greedy for food as labs but they do have this magical fur that sticks to car seats like glue. Oh and they can shed everywhere. Great dogs though.

@antipodean noticed your dog here the other day, gorgeous boy. He looks like he should be in kids movies, the stereotypical scamp with a patch over one eye.

Start with making sure that all of your wife's shoes are out of reach / locked away. You will get the blame.
Actually all shoes and slippers in general.
Well all things that you don't want chewed. Books, bags that sort of thing.
O.K. Just empty the house to be safe.

Got a companion for the big fella. She's nine weeks old, full of energy and they've fast become firm friends. His patience with her is amazing.

Don't know but also probably used to being sent to the doghouse.

Half Husky, half greyhound. But she looked like a dingo so were going to name her Azaria.
