Hey.. I have to say that one of my huge regrets was not getting a dog BEFORE we lost Hector. Ideally you do this before boomer starts to get old and slow down. The logic is that Boomer will teach the new pup everything you have taught him. You say “boomer, Come!” And that little pup sees him do it and viola ! The pup is learning. It’s so much easier to train a dog that way.

In my case, I’m dogless and very much wanting a new one but when we get one we will have to teach that dog from scratch.
