We were supposed to be waiting until tomorrow, but Mary and I just couldn't wait and decided to beg the breeder to let us bring Max home yesterday (Easter). She relented, and we raced down to Pueblo to pick him up.
What a fantastic little boy he is. First night away from his mom and 9 siblings (yeah, a huge litter for Rottweilers) and Max did little more than let me know it was my job to ensure he was taken outside every couple of hours and let him drink some water on the way back in.
I've posted a bunch of pictures here : http://www.sqlt...../pics/max/
Do you think the monkeybutts need a new recruit?
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! We need tons of Monkeydog/Monkeybutts! OMG! Is he precious or what?
I will tell you from my experience with Monkeybaby-bruiser – you will need to nail down everything in your house!
Congrats congrats congrats!
Ok admin – I'm not hinting anymore…we need a new dog/ new puppy forum!!!!!
Comet - 1999 to 2011
She departed us unexpectedly January 23, 2011 at the age of 12 1/2.
She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.
Awwwww! How flipping adorable!! I better not let Michael see this; he keeps threatening to bring a new Rottweiler home. Just too cute! Congrats! 
Amputation on 11/10/09, due to Histiocytic Sarcoma in left elbow. Angel Harley earned his wings on 06/24/10.
Ok, did you really have to post those cute pictures of your new puppy??? Now I want one, err...two....Wishing you all the best & many, many happy years together! Kiss that snout for me, too!
Sending little golden hugs to your new pooch...

Max is truly adorable!

Sorry, with 22 forums already, we just don't see the need for another specifically for topics about new puppies. That's what this Anything Goes forum is for! Thanks for the suggestion though.

Well, Max is about as cute and pudgy as they come! What a great pup! Can't wait to read about him as he grows up. Congratulations!!
Pictures like that just aren't fair to those of us on the edge of deciding about getting another one, now that s agood lookin guy, Paws up to you guys
My buddy Gus had a left front amputation on April 7, 2010 and lived a great life until July 26,2010
I cannot tell you how much having a new puppy in the house has helped since Nikki passed. I really wasn't sure about the timing here, but I can say that after 2 days I'm hooked! (Ok, so I was hooked after 2 minutes, but that's beside the point!) Something very healing about a puppy..
As for Max, yeah, he is kinda cute, isn't he?

Yes, yes, how could you ever say NO to that face?! What a precious little boy! I want to hug him immediately! I love squishy puppies, more than anything. Dang it. Now I want one...

I couldn't begin to say how special Sammy is to us. Living and laughing with and loving this wonderful boy is priceless.
