  Oh boy ... thanks for the info.  I am scared to death of most dogs myself (except Kiki of course) .. so I don't think this is going to be a good situation for us seeing as we live next door and they don't have a fenced yard.  I know this dog is very strong already at 3 months old.   
 What really bothers me more than my neighbor buying from a pet store is knowing that this family doesn't have the time to devote to such a large breed.  The wife works nights as a nurse and sleeps during the day, the husband works regular hours, they have 3 children under the age of 7, have elderly grandparents living with them and also have an uncle with lung cancer living with them.  It is a bad situation with such a large, powerful dog and the wrong family who I  know isn't going to give him the proper training.
 
 I guess I'll be driving Kiki to my sister's neighborhood for walks if this dog is going to be out.
