Hi there everyone.... I am actually from Arizona. Earlier this week I found out that a sexual predator moved in two doors down from me. I have been doing research and figuring out what to do. In addtion to installing a newer alarm system, bars on the windows and door, I also was granted permission from my landlord to get a "barker". I looked into different aggressive but even tempered breeds and decided on the male boxer. Yesterday was spent looking but all the adults available at the pound has serious mental issues (5yo and not house trained, one didn't like cats, one didn't like men.....). I called some local breeders and asked to see their puppies. I must've been to three places before I found this guy. I flipped him over, held him up high, and did all those puppy tests. The breeder even took me into her house where we rang the doorbell and listened to him bark! Needless to say I came home with him. I named him Cactus.
I know puppies are hard work. I had my first up-three-times-night last night. I guess I will nap when he does just as if he were a baby. I am off to the store this morning to spend more money. We are content and happy. I can stay in my apartment and Cactus has a forever home.
I know I will be needing support as I am a "single" puppy parent! I look forward to hearing your advice and stories.
