Update on Leonidas
I decided to run Leo to the vet to check his weight, so I figured this would be a good time for a picture update.
Here is Leo @ 7 months, 71.4 lbs.
You can see some bare skin over his right eye in the first picture, he did that about an hour ago retrieving a tennis ball out from under my car.
He knows basically every standard trick there is and we are now currently working on hide and seek(I make him sit in the corner, I hide a treat somewhere in the house, and he goes and finds it)...He's a little rough around the edges, but he's trying.
He's very obedient now and walks almost perfectly on a leash...Every now and again, he'll bark at a passing dog if the dog shows dominance or aggression, but a quick correction or two usually gets him focused again.
It's crazy how quick they grow up(in size, anyway).

. My parents don't know a whole lot about training dogs except for what I have told them, so I've been making a point to get Leo over to their house as much as possible. Not only to let Hank(little dog) see what a "big boy" is supposed to do, but also do some training routines with him. He's starting to catch on, but he's still stubborn as a mule.
