This is definitely something I have considered that will be tough! Right now I'm trying to compare this puppy to a baby or toddler with the kids. It needs lots of naps, likes to put things in its mouth, potty accidents, etc.
Funny, looks like I have been a "member" on this forum since July 2007. Posted for the first time tonight, but I have been on here reading off and on for the past 3 years. Wow!
