A lil Update...
I just thought I would let everyone know how Champ is adjusting to all of this. Roberto and I brought Champ home to VA the same day that I made my last post. He is still very well mannered, and was a very good boy in the car for the 4 hour trip. He never once tried to get up in the front of the car no matter how restless he was from sitting in the back seat. I was so proud of him! Mostly everyone here loves him and just thinks he is the most handsome thing that was ever around here!

But, Roberto's brother in law thinks that he may be aggressive. I guess because some people relate them to pit bulls. But as every day goes by, they see that he is just a giant teddy bear. He has actually become very protective of my almost 2 year old niece, even though she picks and pokes at him all of the time. She seems to think that he is her personal jungle gym.

But, if he hears her squeal for any reason, he comes running to make sure she is okay. So cute! He still knows all of the tricks that I taught him. And the kids get a kick that he is so well trained. I taught Champ 'paw' and 'other paw', when I ask him to give me his 'other paw' I always give him my other hand....sometimes when people do that trick with him he won't give him his other paw and they think that he is just being stubborn. But, Champ isn't stupid you have to give him your other 'paw' too!

Champ loves his new sister Sunny. She is about 5 months old. She is a mix that I got from the local SPCA down here. They get along very well, and I can't wait to take them both to the beach with me! I also have yet to figure out if I want to take this lady to court and sue her for all of the money that she owes me. Because, I am convinced that my dog bought her a new SUV. But I really don't want to look at her ever again. I love the picture that I have of her in my head as I pulled out of the drive way with MY Champ...finally!!! Especially since it was just after her bf told me to never step foot on his property of he would call the cops!

Thanks again everyone for the prayers...I believe that this truely was a miracle!
