I just got a dog from the local shelter a bit over a month ago myself.
At first I was a bit concerned that he would be a PITA since he was already "Trained" (read not really trained at ALL) and I had had my other dog since he was just a month or so old and spend a LOT of energy to train him RIGHT! As it is turning out however, he's is learning QUITE well! And I even tend to think he tries that much harder since he knows I saved his ASS! 😉 (That my just be wishful thinking on my part though) At any rate, he is shaping up to be a great doggy!
Good luck with the new member of the family!
