Well, I just finished Cesar Millan's, "How to Raise the Perfect Dog" and it's safe to say I now have high hopes that our dog will be super well-behaved. Now that I think about it maybe my delusions are only dog-related? I watch the Westminster Dog Show every year and kind of feel like an amateur dog expert when it comes to identifying different breeds. (yes, amateur expert. you heard right)
As a psych major (who, ahem did nothing with that degree) I really thought the book made a lot of sense in explaining the behavior of dogs. It was an easy read, and it has to be said that it was co-written with someone else (no offense, Cesar).
We'll most likely also do a puppy training class with Henry, since hounds are known to be a little stubborn. We're just excited for his arrival. Two more weeks! Let's hope our cat adapts to the puppy. Have you introduced an older cat to a puppy? I'd LOVE any tips! I do not anticipate this going well.
Oh, you want to see his latest pic? If you insist. Note he is already dwarfing small children. HUGE!

ReplyDeletetwo more weeks! eek! oh Henry ... you could not be any cuter if you tried. we did a month of "school" with sherman ... and look where that got us. with a half-eaten couch.
ReplyDeletehonestly though, the classes really do help. I would definitely recommend them!
