Hi! I'm considering adopting an afghan hound/golden retriever that is 2 years old. But, I'm really nervous about adopting him for several reasons. One is that he's located in NJ and I live in NY. Will the car ride be too much for him. I'm also nervous because he was recently surrendered by his old family because one of the kids was allergic to him. Will he fit in with me if I'm not like his old family? I heard that they are fantastic with children. Is this true? Do they have lovable and gentle personalities? It says that he wasn't well socialized and gets nervous easily. Is it possible to socialize him even though he is 2 now? Will he be ok on walks? Are they good with other dogs and are they smart? If I'm able to offer him stability and a loving home will he be ok? Will he make a wonderful addition to my family? Thanks!
