Thank you!

Here's a vid from tonight. First video... only place I have room to record and not a mess in the background! Ok.. not a huge mess. XD

Just worked on the crate idea a little bit. He hates it and is a whiney boy.

Nikon is gorgeous BUT OH BE STILL MY HEART PATTON! :D

I absolutely adore German Shepherds. We're not quite a great match for actually getting one, but I do love to spend time around them.

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks guys! I'm hoping to update this thread pretty regularly - I've been aiming for daily pictures at least, if not videos... I wish we had more room inside to record. :(

Nikon is as gorgeous as I remember.

...:D I love him. We train and compete together in a few different sports, he's a ton of fun and exactly what I want in a German Shepherd. Patton is a LOT like him so far- I really hope it stays that way! :)
Ooo- you're going to have so much fun with Patton!

Video of the day. Because yogurt kibble on my floor and puppy nails ripping my lip open got old real fast.

Ok, I have more to add! XD

We went to agility practice a few nights ago, Patton didn't care too much about all the other dogs around and was happy to crate silently (even when Recon was out running) and work for food and toys, along with playing tug! He successfully completed numerous sits, downs, comes, touches, shakes, and bang along with following me for the most part when I asked. This was his first time on the leash. He also went through the curved tunnel twice.

His brother was there to "comfort" him...

Pig ears will help a bro through anything!

Such good attention. There were three dogs on course behind him there running during this.

So many things!

Started working on impulse control in the crate/crate games!

Took him to work and taught him what the grooming table and tub was all about..

And he froze his little bum outside. XD

He's looking so grown up! Last two are from today @ 12 weeks!

You are giving me GSD puppy fever! Any chance you'll send that adorable little guy over here? :p

Can we compromise on you just coming here to visit him? :p
LOL, that's probably best. Fable is technically almost grown up (she'll be 2 on the 23rd) but she's just as insane as a she was when she was a puppy. I probably don't need another right now. :p
So expect be at your doorstep pretty soon. :D That boy, just...<3

I'm expecting it! XD

Haha Recon isn't even 2 yet... barely a year and a half. And I decided to do this? Crazy. Just crazy. :p
