Congratulations (I think). the first few days this pup will be adjusting to a new human (you), home, smells, schedule. Is he house broken meaning does he pee and poop out doors or is he pad trained, if he makes out doors see if where ever he is has a schedule for him, if they do you will have to stick to that schedule, if he's not you will have to take him out every few hours to make. If he is pad trained make sure he knows where the pad is, you may have an accident or two until he gets settled in. Make sure you keep him on the same food he's been eating. Do not give him free roam to your home until you know if he does his business inside or out side, so block off all rooms and keep him in one room only. Do you have toys for him, a ball or two, soft rubber squeaky toys, a tug of war toy, an old sock knotted in the middle would work well.
He "could" have some Chihuahua in him, he has that kind of face. He looks like a tiny lil guy. When your family comes home, make sure your daughter does not grab him, let her sit on the floor and have this boy go to her, let him sniff her, then have your "gently" pet him. This boy is going to be used to just you and him, so introducing him to your 6 year old daughter has to be a gentle introduction.
I will pray everything goes well and this little boy has finely found his forever home. I hate to see these dogs go from one foster home to another. Good luck and please keep us updated when you get him.
