I regret to inform you...

So after my last post Drew and I went to Memphis and met Hank. He is a SWEET boy, but...I don't think we are going to be able to keep him. After we got him we went to PetSmart to get a harness for him (because he pulls...) and he growled and snapped at another dog...not good. We went to Hollywood Feed later on to get a brush for him...and he gritted his teeth and snapped at another dog-both unprovoked situations. Then when we were getting ready to get out of the car at the apartment, he growled at one of the little girls that lives downstairs...NOT GOOD AT ALL...so Drew is going to call the foster mom back today and talk to her, but I don't think it's going to work out with Hank. It's so weird because he is GREAT at home, very gentle and quiet, but anytime he is out in public and around other dogs he is like a different dog. Also, he pulls on the leash...last night he literally pulled me around the corner when I took him for a walk-I am not some tiny little weak thing and I couldn't hold him...I would not feel comfortable walking him at North Park--which is my goal...so I just don't think is the right dog for Drew and I...he is the right dog for SOMEONE, just not for us...

Made me so sad to admit it, but it scared Drew and I when he growled and snapped at those dogs and then sealed the deal when he growled at the little girl...
