She's fun as can be.... but just a holy terror too! Can't take my eyes off this one yet.

My pups 5 months and while he has gotten much better and is house/kennel trained, I still can't take my eyes off him. Probably will be a year before I can do that. Puppies are lots of fun, but lots of work! good luck.

Who am I kidding I haven't had a say in pet naming since I got married.

I think it's just the way it goes, though. You just gotta convince yourself that some aspect about the name is cool.

Rango was a house terrorist until he hit 18 months. Stopped eating my house.

My pup is very good actually. He hasn't chewed up any furniture or anything. He prefers dirty underwear and socks. It's really just his energy level that we are dealing with now. He's a Boxer so his energy is through the roof. If we can't exercise him properly one day because of other shit going on, he is an absolute bear. I'm talking like running around at full speed in the house, jumping over couches, and he still likes to nip and get aggressive. Not looking forward to winter when it gets really cold. We will have to find some way to stimulate him other than just take him to the dog park lol.

I've always had at least one dog my whole life, never trained one. In fact I've been told my behavior has been an obstacle in training. I'm not sure I would have the patience, props to anyone that does.

Edited to add: I just remembered this, in the time before CD's we had a Sheltie pup that ate the corners off about 150 of my record albums. The upper left corner right across like eating a cob of corn, including an unopened Dark Side. I wanted to kill that little ******. Turned out to be a great dog which I deserve zero credit for.

We just got a boxer. Little over a year old, hyper as hell. She was kept in a cage for long periods of time since no one was ever home, so she had to adjust to the freedom we give here. Took a couple weeks, but she's settling down a bit. Loves attention and loves to play though.

Love boxers. Fun dogs. Loads of energy though. The people I've known with boxers always had two so they can beat up on each other.

Such lovable dogs with awesome personalities. Definitely require a lot of attention though.

I've heard this before and we've actually talked about getting another one. I just don't think I could handle two of them lol.

How did you do that with your dog, Mr. Sparkles?

I don't own a dog. However...i believe there is a Simpson's reference to that.

It was just a joke, I forgot the smiley.
No worries...almost anything could be spun, though.

I have had 2 and can confirm they will wear each other out.
