Thanks you guys!

Yes, she is wonderful.  And already this morning didn't pull me when I took her out for the morning stroll.  She seemed very proud of herself as well, almost prancing, and kept looking up at me, as if saying "See what I'm doing here, New Mommy?  Pretty impressive, ain't I!"

I don't know if there's anyone here from the northern VA area, but I am trying to get her in a basic obedience class and can't find a good one online.  I want her to have that socialization so she'll settle down when we see other dogs while out and about.  So if you know of a great obedience class, clue me in!  I am checking with my vet to see if they have any recommendation s.

check out your local kennel clubs, or breed club. They usually have information about obedience classes. I am a big fan of clicker training, and think that is a wonderful way to train your dog.

Please see my reply to the rescue mastiff poem, above. I have contacted you guys NUMEROUS times offering to adopt - and you have never (except for one aborted phone call) responded. Even the link you gave does not provide a way to e mail you! COME ON!
