Maybe something will happen to you like it did to me, which must be some kind of neurological phenomenon: every bad memory from Jerry's puppyhood is completely wiped off my brain
!! Really, I vaguely remember maybe some frustration about certain incidents of puppy teeth constantly lodged into my jeans wherever I walked, or certain "accidents" on the carpet right when we thought he had finally understood...but the rest has completely disappeared, in my memory, behind a pink cloud of how great it was, how cute he was, and how much fun we had. Mind you, he is only 2 and a half years now! I recently saw a home video my dad made when Jerry was a few months old, my god, I was in tears how funny he was!
Really, he grew so fast, and he is such a sweet and loving dog (and yes, he has calmed down...a bit), we absolutely adore him. I remember that my OH, at some point was more pronounced about his frustration with Jerry's puppyhood annoyances, but these days all he does is hugging and kissing him and swearing his love to him
We're thinking about getting a second dog in 2008 and I would looove to get another puppy - help, do I need an intervention?? (Actually, we're more thinking about getting a spayed rescue female older than 1 year...)
