Thanks for the encouraging words and information! I really hope that he is just a shy submissive puppy. I don't want to think of someone hurting such a great dog:( I will continue to play tug of war with him and definately do the massage therapy. I have seen improvement even today. He wasn't scared of a lawnmower and he let someone who was definately questionable looking but really a nice guy come to him and pet him. He just bowed his head and even wagged his tail a little.

We are going to an adoption day on Saturday so that should be a great learning experience.

I just want this puppy to be the best dog he can and get a really great home. I am convinced thad he was the puppy I saw on Campus and couldn't catch. There is just something special about this dog. I think I got a second chance (over 2 miles away) for a reason and I don't want to let it go to waste. Maybe this dog was meant to be something great or just an ordinary dog but I want to give him the best chance possible.

Thanks again for your help and support:D
