First year of a dogs life

I don`t think Lucky was trying to be mean, but I do think that a very important point was made regarding dogs. I am a firm believer that the kind of dog you end up with has a lot to do with what happens to them in their first year of life. I feel so sorry for this neo......... she is just gorgeous and must be so confused, ( she must be thinking why doesn`t anyone want me?)
I won`t judge her owners for trying to find a new home for her as we all know that sometimes life deals us with a real crappy hand and we have to do what we have to do, I just feel so sorry for that pup. To be going to her third home before she is a year old and not knowing if she will stay there must be awful for her. I hope that she can find a forever home, and finally be able to relax and grow into the dog she was destined to be.
If she was originally purchased from a breeder I would be very surprized if the original breeder would not want her back, I can`t imagine the breeder wanting what has happened to her to continue.
Large breed dogs are not for everyone and maybe she needs someone who understands exactly what they are getting into.

I wish we didn`t live so far away, I have a large home and I am sure she would fit right in here, we have room for one baby grand piano now ( namely our Dogue ... Angel). Hubby may not want another mastiff right now though, he has enough trouble when angel wants to be his lap dog.
