Yes, crate training is absolutely essential! I had one person tell me they thought crating a dog was cruel, but I told them what my vet told me: "you do realize that dogs are decended from wolves, right? Ever see a wolf den? A crate is positively roomy by comparison!"<br /><br />I wish you all the best with your new beastie! Looking forward to seeing the pics! Samhain is a fantastic moniker to bestow upon your new dog!The Gill-Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07680794257168881000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5432553249381188872.post-6060816216322848482011-02-05T13:08:17.592-08:002011-02-05T13:08:17.592-08:00If your new baby is anything like Lotus, he's ...If your new baby is anything like Lotus, he's going to be gorgeous.

I.e., he doesn't associate you coming home as a stressful time, because you're not screaming at him for eating your best shoes.ShellHawkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17705072702016925284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5432553249381188872.post-18737206631740651302011-02-05T12:33:55.975-08:002011-02-05T12:33:55.975-08:00Yay Puppies!Yay Puppies!Goneferalinidahohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10001720343818923656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5432553249381188872.post-82713748729930216072011-02-05T11:52:32.615-08:002011-02-05T11:52:32.615-08:00Let the puppy chewing, knocking things over, peein...Let the puppy chewing, knocking things over, peeing, pooping, stealing your underwear off the bathroom floor, digging in the backyard, fun begin!<br /><br />Puppies.....got to love them....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5432553249381188872.post-85598073188289111592011-02-05T09:14:19.393-08:002011-02-05T09:14:19.393-08:00Love, love, love Shepies!!

I grew up with them and as soon as my two little dogs have joined their dog heaven pack I will be getting another Sheperd. <br />Glad you did your research and found a good breeder.
