New GSD puppy owner

Jeana · 01-17-2013, 10:00 AM

Hello, my name is Jeana. I just got my GSD puppy on Jan. 8, 2013. I named him Shadow. He was born 11-23-2012.
He's a handful now. Loves to chew on everything and play a lot. He also loves to play with my cat. Amazingly my cat Morris doesn't mind him. To much anyway.
As much as I love my Shadow I am also overwhelmed at times with having him constantly chewing. But I know with my patience and training and his growth it will be no time and it will all be calm.
I will however need lots of advice and knowladge from this site.
I am crate training him which is going well. I take him out at night when he needs it and many times during the day to do his business.
Looking forward to talking to other GSD owners.

Handsome little fellow, has he got a sturdy chew toy to keep him busy? If he begins chewing on something that he shouldn't tell him no and offer him his chew toy.
