I'm a little leery of a puppy because we haven't had one before. Our shelter dog was about 2 years when we got her and she came with some behavioral problems. The shelter told us that she had been returned twice before. She had a good temperament, but was very hyperactive. The most important thing I taught her was "go to your place" and take a break. She also didn't like the leash...it was a real treat to take her walk for a long time. She later learned to love the leash. She would prance around the neighborhood with her head held high. I wasn't working at the time and had time to work with her.

We won't even be able to meet the puppy before next sat, so puppy will be at least eight weeks when and if we get her.
