A Month and a Day

Yesterday was one month that we have had our Boxador, Leia. Here is the picture I was emailed when Amanda from Good Karma Puppy Rescue let me know that she was available for adoption.

Sean decided that he wanted to adopt her and because he is not 21, I adopted her for him. It was my graduation present for him because he has lost out on so many things during the end of his senior year. So yesterday was a month! She is a sweetheart! She’s a really laid-back puppy and she is completely housebroken. I ordered a harness a while ago but it ended up being too big for her so last night, we got a properly fitting harness:

It was late when we got it in the mail but we had to try it on her. In the picture, her tail was wagging because she thought she was going out for a walk. It was late and I kind of felt bad for her but she got to wear the harness this morning for her morning walk and potty break.

I think it’s absolutely crazy that in one month, I am a, “Dog person!” because I really am now. My Chewy order arrived for her this morning as well and she COMPLETELY tore up one of the puppy chew toys! Looks like I will have to peruse the site further to buy more toys because her jaws are too strong for puppy chew toys. I still have a lot to learn about being a dog owner her at least someone who loves and cares so deeply for one!
