This little guy was born Feb 8, 2014. He came to live with us May 7, 2014. He has been a joy and a terror. We are working on our manners on a daily basis. He can "sit", "down" and still working on "come". He knows his name (OPIE) and loves belly rubs more than anything. UPDATE - sit, down, rollover, come, up, shake, high 5, spin. 63 pounds as of 10/27/14 Graduated from Beginner, Intermediate and now starting Advanced Classes. UPDATE - 12/17/14 - 70 pounds - 10 months. In Advanced training classes. Loves the dogpark, pet resort and playing in the mud.
Having a dog has been a fun and wonderful experience for everyone in your family. In fact, it has been so rewarding that you are now seriously thinking of getting a second dog. However, it is important that you really think this decision through, because having two dogs can be an entirely different experience from having one.
So you have made the decision to get a dog. Perhaps you had a bad experience once before with a dog who you thought was cute or friendly, but then when you got him home he turned out to be a holy terror, and the whole thing turned into a nightmare. Even if you have never had such a bad experience, the fact remains that choosing a pet is a life-changing decision, and it is one that takes a lot of thought and research.
Is there such a thing as the perfect puppy? In all likelihood there is not. There is always something one might change in any dog (or person really), but the goal should be to always strive towards raising a puppy to be its most perfect self. This is hard work, to be sure, but it is not only possible, it is necessary.
