Nothing like having an almost 3 year old boy and a 10 week old puppy to keep things busy. That said, we here at the Dex files are doing well and hope you all are too. Can you believe that Dexter is almost 3 next month?!?!

Dexter has been quite good with Vlad now that Buckaroo is here. He definitely knows gentle touches, but seems as though Vlad is expecting something much worse seeing as his ears are pointing back.



And here's a video demonstrating Dexter being a little Dr. Doolittle.



We're crate training Dexter, er, I mean Buckaroo to be housebroken. Don't get us wrong, Dexter is dabbling in the use of a potty, but we're trying to housebreak Buckaroo to not go potty everywhere and it's a learning process. This isn't the crate we're using (we returned it for a nicer looking one), but Dexter had to check it out before he gave it the thumbs down.



And a video of Buckaroo having an "accident" as caught on film.



Dexter's been very good at singing to us. The ABCs are something he's very fond of singing. I love his voice and how he can alter it a little bit.



And lastly, here's a nice up and close video of Buckaroo...

Hello everyone. It's a fun-filled weekend here with Dexter. First off...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, UNCLE VICTOR! It's Victor's birthday and we wanted to show him how much we love him and that we're thinking of him. Dexter is so happy to hold up these signs that he could barely contain his happiness! We hope you had a great day, Uncle Victor!



And now...we have a new addition to the family. Buckaroo came home! Here he is with Dexter, the first night at his new home. First night was brutal, what with Buckaroo getting used to being in a strange place. But ever since then, he's been an absolute delight. Sleeping in his crate/pen area, going potty outside (most of the time) and just overall being a great little dog.



Buckaroo's first visitors were Karen and baby Julian. Here they are sharing a moment.



The other visitors were Stephanie and Matt and they brought the twins. They had a grand old time. Here are the twins, Aidan and Sophia, Dexter and sleepy little Buckaroo. By the way, Stephanie and Matt will be having their own little addition to their family...their baby boy is due on April 6! What a great Spring everyone will be having!



Whew. That's it for now! See you all next time!
