    We got Bo three weeks ago and he has been nothing but a bundle of energy. At first, I was a little bit overwhelmed with how needy a puppy is!!

    I know I'm so gay for taking him to take a pic with Santa according to my fiance.

    I have more pictures of him at 9 and 10 weeks old but they're on my home laptop.

    I do need some advice on him pulling his leash ONLY when we're walking back home. He is good walking by me when we're going in the opposite direction. I've tried just stopping when he pulls then go when he stops pulling and sit.

    How to get him to stop nipping at my pants? Sometimes my hands.

    I've taught him OFF when he jumps at the couch and SIT. That is for now. He is still a little bit young...going to be three months this Saturday. He's not potty trained yet...we have a crate for him so he is good with that.

    Just wanted to share my furbaby with you guys!

    LOL, that's what everyone says about his feet!

    I forgot to mention that he is a Boxer.

    And HOW! He's cute & cuddly now. So cuddle him while you can. It won't be too long before he's cuddling you. That has a tendency to upset some fiancees.

    I will make sure and let my fiance know. :) That's why I'm always cuddling him and picking him up to hug him fully. In a short time, I won't be able to pick him up. Enjoying it so far!!

    Best way to potty train is when he pisses/dumps in the House, show him what he did and scold him. After a few times of being b****ed at, he's going to want to wait and do his business outside.

    If you have some extra cash laying around, contact Anita - http://www.doubledogtraining.com/

    She charges by the visit/hour, and it isn't super cheap, but she'll come to your house (assuming you're in Houston) and is one of the better trainers out there. She trains both you and the dog, and doesn't treat train (which I don't like, because it obviously trains the dog to be rewarded with something as opposed to just doing something because you've said so). She's like a female Dog Whisperer-lite.

    I hope you guys are satisfied!

    It says on her website that she only accepts referrals. I emailed her anyway. I LOVE Cesar Milan.

    Cute dog, I was supposed to get a dog this month. This makes me want to get a dog even more now.

    Yes Kam, it is time... Let's see yours.

    You never disappoint, SwoLy....

    Very cute Lady Di! :) My suggestions on the leash.. is find a walking path that goes in a circle ;) Honestly I don't have a dog, so someone else will have to help you with that one.
