Reading Shotze's Mom's story makes me think of my girl. I take her to the bathroom with me every morning when I shower. It drives her nuts when I close the shower doors. She stands up on the edge of the tub and barks. When I talk to her she'll bark more. She's just ten weeks, not real big yet. This morning I opened up the shower door just enough for her to put her head in and she started barking as if to say "get out of that shower", she yips and jackhammers until I get out. I think she just wants me out so she can lick the water off my legs and feet. That tickles like crazy and trying to dry off....it's the towel attack. She's so funny, I luv her!!

My last boxer, Bo, kidney beaned, nibbled, woo-wooed, froggy-doged, drooled to excess and had a habit of always managing to get in the way. Jake, our current dog, doesn't do any of those things. Jake runs the figure eights like a banshee. When he needs to go out, he comes over and paws my foot until I get the message. Jake is an ankle grabber. He has such a grip that I think he might be able to climb a tree. If you are wearing black or he has just had his dinner, you have got to watch your pants. I am proud to be seen walking by his side.

Ricochet is a split personality!
One of the things I love about about Rico is you never know whats coming next! He's nuts half the time and totally laid back the rest of the time! He loves to go for walks in the woods and he has to carry a huge stick or small tree for the entire walk! I also love the way he tilts his head to one side to listen to me and then completely ignores what I say!

Finger and toe gnawing?
I read through quite a few of the traits and have not seen mention of gnawing on fingers and toes. Bodie seems to have an addiction of nibbling on my hands or feet. Luckily he is very gentle and the feet part tickles quite a bit, the downside is that the slobber is a bit messy.
Gas...yeah, he can clear a room.
Tail chasing....not only his but sometimes he runs and lunges at my backside as well and gives quite the "goosing"
Boxing...not sure how to break him of the jumping on people, been trying for months and he is just a little stubborn. He kicked my butt once with a right cross and actually gave me a bloody nose.

Ricochet used to chew on our fingers constantly, the bigger his mouth got the less cute we found it! I actually have a few scars on my wrist as reminders! We broke him of it by replacing the hand with a cloth and plastic chew to and that worked wonders! Each time he started to chew we just gave him the toy and we didn't have to repremand him at all.
Here's a quick question for you, how do I post a picture of my dogs so people can see how cute they are?!

Same Traits!
It's so fun to read about others kids, our girl Zoe does just about all of the ones that have been mentioned! Especially the sudden tearing around the backyard for no apparent reason! She also loves to box, you just hold your 2 fists up and she jumps right on you!
