But in my estimation one of the most obnoxious breeds of dogs that exist.

Don't flame me, I said "my estimation", and yes I've been around many of them.

The are extremely territorial, they bite, and I've never even seen an owner that can get them to quit barking.

The only funnier one I saw was a huge Newfoundland retriever who thought he could hide in short grass and jump out at people. We played along, he was a great dog.

I can see why this little dog was given up, he's just not the type for some frou-frou lady to carry around in her handbag.

Good for him on finding a family who appreciates who he is and good on them for appreciating him.
