    Yeah, very well could be for puppies, that is how we trained our Schnoxie, as a puppy. Started her off when she was 10 weeks old. Getting a dog at 1.5 years old and not knowing much of her past is quite a bit different.
    If...
    Ron dislikes a film = go out and buy it.
    Ron loves a film = don't even rent.

    Wow she's only 1 1/2! You basically still have a pup there. She will probably adjust very nicely.

    Well, we resorted to crate training. She was doing well but then had several nights of pooping and peeing in the middle of the night. She's been crated for the past several nights and is doing ok. Not messing in the crate but lots and lots of whining and barking, so, she sleeps in the crate in the ht room in the garage. We cannot hear her so we are able to sleep. We tried the living room last night and it only lasted a couple of hours before the whining started. Hopefully in a few more days she'll be able to sleep in the house with us.

    That poor pup was probably really traumatized and lonely before you got her.

    Got my little fox terrier from the shelter 8 years ago and is the ruler of our world. You will be rewarded with much love and affection.

    I like puppies, but I can't eat a whole one. I could probably make an exception for this one...
