Spencer!


Spencer our beautiful puppy child has been in our lives for two months now and it has been none stop joy for us. He has been such a wonderful and needed addition to our small family. Spencer has taught us wonderful lessons in pre parenting responsibilities. He has tested our patients in one way or another off and on the whole time we have had him.

One of the things we let him get away with is sleeping in our bed with us, but we allow it because he is just so darn great to cuddle with. He mostly stays to his little curve of the bed (remember we have a circle bed) so he goes unnoticed until about 5 am when be has decked he likes to clim on us and cuddle and hen wake us up around 6:30 so he can o to the bathroom. We may make him sleep on his ground pillow latter but for right now we both love him in bed.

His favorite toy is a tie between some old socks he can ripe apart and of course the tennis balls. He plays with them for hours.

Our biggest problem so far has been the few times we have tried to trust him off of his leash and it ended with is trying to catch him for hours! Boxers are classified as clowns so when they get free they like to tease you into thinking that you can get them and then they run off. We have since invested in a long rope so he can run "freely" and we can not deal with that ever again.

Other them that he is a wonderful dog with a great

personality and behaves wonderfully.


We love him so very much.

  1. He's adorable! We let our dog sleep in our bed when he was a puppy too. But now he is too big and if we make him sleep on his pillow on the ground he whines and tries to sneak onto the bed in the middle of the night!
