He is the BEST! Our first dog. His name is Scrappy, and we adopted him 2 weeks ago from a rat terrier rescue group. We affectionatly call him "Scraptastic" now sometimes. 
The only couple of things are that he sometimes poops in the house. (Despite the fact that the door is open almost all day - and remind him by tossing him out there every 2 hours or so...
and we cant figure out how to get him to play. Like ball or frisbee or chase or something? We really want to play with him!
Oh and he does growl sometimes at the kids but dude, I would if I were him too. They are pretty overwhelming sometimes at ages 5,3, and 1. The second day he snapped at my 5 yr old who was trying to make the dog lick his face and my 5 yr old was broken hearted that his new "best friend" didnt like him anymore.
So a few challenges but mostly a hugely successful adoption story to report!!!!
He made my heart grow bigger.
