Goodness you have taken on a responsibility!!! I can understand your concerns. I now have three dogs that i knew nothing about. I went to Amazon and bought books on the breeds. I have had dogd all my life and never read a book...but one of the best items i bought was a cage...for their protection and privacy from visitors. They are lively dogs and i would seriously advise that you take it to a good training school for his benifit and yours. Good luck
