I noticed a couple things about Buddha...he barely ever barks...only really at dogs passing by the house from the screen door...because Riely does it...

and the times I've accidentally stepped on his tail or foot, etc...he has never yelped...I dont know if he just doesnt want to show weakness or what...

All the dogs we've met...he's been WAY better behaved than Riely...I guess because most of them have been older or bigger than him...he just stood there and let them sniff him...but he's fine...he's good in the pet store...even when the dogs approach him...he's curious...but he's never showed aggression...he was good during his first bath....didn't bark ONCE when we took him in the bathing room with all the other dogs getting baths...

it seems he's only aggressive with puppies so far...ones that move too fast around him...i think they put him on guard right away...because they're moving fast and he doesn't know whats going to happen...

I totally love my dog...which is why I'm upset...the thought of him being a dangerous dog when he's older and hurting another dog...being taken away or being put to sleep...or having charges pressed against me or whatever is just scary...and it makes me sad...he was very good with his commands last night...he seems to be a fast learner as long as you have treats in hand...
