Newest member of the Fam



**Meet Relic!****

This cute 6 week old Boxer is an early Christmas present for the boys! Max has always loved dogs and has wanted one so bad. They were so surprised when John walked through the door holding him! Actually, they were in disbelief and just stood there with a smile. Max buried his face in the couch for a minute before running and hugging him. Our wonderful friends, the Rogers have pretty much the perfect dog, Jasmine. I have never really been a dog lover but I really like Jas. She is so sweet and good with their kids and ours. I have always wanted to take her home, so when they were going to breed her I just knew I had to have one of her puppies. Well, she only had three and we were so lucky to get one! They are all so dang cute but one had a white nose and he was ours! Every time we would leave their house Max would be so sad and say- I just want that dog with the white nose. No other dog would do.

We have had him for almost a week now and he has such a good temperament. We are in the middle of house training him and he is doing soo good. It is actually easier than I thought! He sleeps all through the night and waits until the morning to go to the bathroom. He is great. I have never done this before but have done a lot a research on Boxers and how to care for them, so I just hope that we will do OK. I think he is the perfect dog for our family and he has made us so happy! BIG thanks to the Rogers Jaxson was playing with him and they both fell asleep together. So cute
