That's WONDERFUL news, Alaska Guy! I'm not a real religious person, but you may have just moved the needle one notch for me.
Sounds like Mosely's mom was just the right person! Joey looks like a beautiful dog and most importantly your son is safe AND happy about the outcome!
Best of luck and hopefully we can revisit this thread in six months with a positive update. Lord knows we need more positive stories around here.
To the pricks who are likely inbound. Fvck off from me!

Sounds like you should just bring the single female pediatrician into your bedroom. Logical next step!
It's a known fact that most German shepherds are anti-semites. I don't trust them either, and I love dogs.
This is not true. I'm a dog lover. I'm also in the camp that if a dog is a serial attacker (That wasn't just a bite, it was an attack), the safest and most humane solution is euthanasia. There is a reason why insurance companies take the same position, excluding dogs who've previously bitten from policies.
OP is in a really tough position and I feel his pain. Nobody with a heart doesn’t. For the sake of the dog and the people involved, I'm sincerely hopeful that this solution leads to a happy and incident free existence for everyone.
That is great news, happy for all involved.
On a related note, the wife and I were camping when we saw this dog barking without sound. We asked the owner what was up with the dog. Owner tells me the dog was a barker so they had the dog's vocal cords cut. 😬
This could have been a great "Who's the asshole here?" thread. I'm thinking it might be Op since I believe dogs are great at judging people. Maybe the bite makes sense afterall.
That sucks. My sister had a dog that would bark at everything. She put a collar on her that would mist water on her every time she barked. It trained the dog pretty quickly
Man that's awesome news. I gotta admit this whole thing has affected me more than I'd like to admit. Damn dogs!
This story has been consuming me all week. I've just had this pit in my stomach that he was so young and was going to be put down. I understand the circumstances and realize there was probably little choice left in the manner. What a great person that lady is to take him in. Glad it all worked out in the end
Anyone have cliff notes, /tldr.
Doggo didn’t get sent to doggo heaven?

Great to hear! Just had to think there would have to be someone interested in your pup. Happy for you and the fam, and especially Joey.
Couple people in our town have golden doodles. All from same breeder they all seem completely uncontrollable when they are walking them. Got bit by one while riding bike but I was wearing pants so I don’t even stop.
Not a breed I would even own.
We have a mut rescue dog that is a lab mix. Rescue dogs are the way to go.

Here's Joey when we dropped him yesterday afternoon. It helped he was very excited and we didn't have to drag him.
We took our son over there after school so they could run around in the yard. This was the boys last night after a full day of play:
It's still pretty sad. Our home is quiet and feels like it's missing something. I missed our hide-n-seek routine last night for sure.
Who knows what the future holds, but Joe's in good and capable hands and he's happy.

The dog has the same head shape as William Murderface from Metalocolypse.

To each their own I guess, but this move is stupid IMO. Again, love for an animal trumps human safety.
UPDATE:
A good friend from High School has a farm outside Atlanta. She breeds 4 different types of Doodles and has one named Millie who needs rehoming. She's a Golden Mountain Doodle (a cross between a Golden Retriever, a Bernese Mountain Dog, and a Poodle). She just got married and between the two of them now have SEVEN dogs. She said Mollie would be the perfect dog for our son.

He's actually doing well. He's happier than I've seen him. completely attached to Mosely. His new owner is researching a behavioral trainer to come work with both Joey and her dog (Mosely).
It's hardest on my wife, actually. She walks both dogs a few times a week and stops by the front yard so I can see Joey for a min or two.
Thanks for asking.
And what do you contribute here? ....other than being a douche canoe?
Congrats....she's SO cute!UPDATE:

Yeah, you might want to start on the last page and go in reverse chronological order.
RIP in Pieces, Mosley's mom.
Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiid. I kiiiid.
UPDATE:
Joey turned 2 last week and is still doing very well with his new owner and best pal, Mosely. I think he was destined to be a one-owner dog with no kiddos. A few times per week they both come up to the front door eager to say hello, so we do get to see him from time-to-time.
