A little off subject, but we left a leash on Maverick to drag around. If he tried to go somewhere he shouldn't, eat something (like toiletpaper that his dad forgot to put up), or just get crazy we...

I had to search affenpinscher—good lord, they look like black Ewoks. Adorable. I'm not one for toy breeds, but those are cute dogs.
Anyway, welcome MrsNicklin501 and Sophie. i also strongly...
What a cutie!
The DNA tests are kind of fun. My sister has a lab mix who has a disability. The kicker is that he looks almost 100% lab but the disability is only common in toy breeds. So mostly...

The crate - I am a crate advocate. There are ways to make the crate feel...
Sticks are dirty, ha ha ha! Just wait until you have to pull a dead rodent or another animal's poop out of her mouth! That's where learning and teaching the command to "leave it" and "drop it" will...
Good looking puppy there! give her a hug from me!

Hi and welcome!
Sophie is adorable! Lots of patience and love, she will do just fine. All of the changes can be overwhelming to a puppy.
