Oh fun!! Over the years, we've "rescued" 3 bassets, 1 spaniel mix, 1 cocker spaniel, 1 maltese and 4 cats. We are now down to 2 of our bassets, the Maltie, and 1 cat.
I hope the transition goes smoothly.

**update**
Louie is doing great! He's a WONDERFUL dog! Honestly, he is one of the best behaved dogs I've ever encountered. He's also GORGEOUS! We really hit the jackpot with him.
The boys are loving him, and he's really good at playing fetch which is great.
He seems to be adjusting just fine. He's eating normally, playing, and sleeping all night in his crate. He is SO smart, and a fast learner. We've already taught him a few things.
For a one year old lab, I can't believe how good his house manners are already. He doesn't even try to touch anything that we don't explicitly show him is one of his toys. I bought a bunch of toys for him, left them on a carpet by his crate, and he didn't even go near them. When I showed him they were for him, only then did he start playing with them. If one of the boys leaves a toy laying around, he doesn't touch it. SUCH a good dog! We are very happy with him.

Congrats on getting such a wonderful new addition to your family! He sounds like a fantastic dog, and it sounds like it is a great fit for all of you. Louie is lucky to have found a great new home!

That's exactly how we feel DisneyDog! We are on our fourth rescue dog and they all have been amazing! We too feel that while they fit in to the household very quickly, it does take at least one full year for the whole family to totally settle in.
Don't worry - dogs work mostly in the present. They don't dwell in the past - he will be happy to be in your home and be loved within a day or two! Two of our four didn't even need the day or two - one was such a seasoned traveler she was like "ok let's go!" and she never looked back! She will be 12 in the fall (we have had her for 9 years now) and is the current matriarch of our "herd" of schnauzers, lol.
Enjoy! You will have a best friend in no time at all!!
