Hi all! Just signed up today- thought I'd introduce myself before I started checking everything out.
My name is Nicole and my boyfriend and I are proud parents of a 5 month old boxer pup. We've had him for about a month now and his name is Rocco. He's fawn brindle and all legs. We also have a 3 year old chocolate lab mix- Rado. Not sure if any of you are into cars, some of you might notice they're both named after VWs- Corrado and Scirocco.
So far, it seems Rocco is a perfect fit in our family. I'm learning first hand what love-y dogs they are. He took an hour long nap in my lap within 15 minutes of meeting me and the kisses are endless! A far cry from our lab, who has been quite independent, even in his puppy days! Overall, I'm really impressed on how well and how quickly the 2 'brothers' are taking to each other!
I've done limited research, but I am really looking forward to getting more familiar with the unique breed characteristics. I have tons of questions- but I think I'll check out the forums and see if they haven't been answered already!
Thanks! -Nicole
(PS- just checked out the massive amount of 'forum faces' you guys have....oh am I going to like those!! haha)
