My son is coming by in a few hours to have Christmas at my place. Unexpected money troubles mean it's not going to be a very big year present-wise, but that's not really what it's supposed to be about, despite everything you hear. It's more about making sure that the people you love know that you care.
Anyway, here's what he's getting:..Think he'll like it?

im sure your son will love him!
Anon -- My son's eyes lit up when he saw it. Mission Accomplished.
Bef -- It's the first dog my son and I have ever owned (my parents had them growing up), and it's a bit of a challenge, but it's been really cool to see my little one playing with the pup.
Werdna -- The cats aren't hearing that mess, and the squirrel is now one with the Force, but everything else in the house is apparently fair game.
Ms. Cowan -- He loved it, thanks!
Dani -- It's the floppy ears, how can you not love the floppy ears?
Amanda -- He's been a handful, especially for an apartment -- but the training continues. Hopefully soon we'll reach a happy medium.
Jersey -- Thanks, girl :)
Shanell -- Thus far he's chewed on anything that isn't locked down. He eats pillows. Who does that!?
Melissa -- We're calling him "Tripper"
We got a lot of our dog-raising advice from a book, "Great Dogs, Good Owners", Brian Kilcommon. The layout/photos/everything are cheesy as hell, and I've never been able to make the leash corrections he describes work well, but that aside he has a lot of good advice about scheduling and training.
Kaiser -- got the crate finally, gonna start getting focused on the conditioning in a different direction than what wasn't working before. Thanks for the suggestions!
