Maybe he's a vegetarian!

Is he adopted (like from a shelter?)? I know some dogs, who've had bad past experiences with a certain gender can have a negative reaction to that same gender (an adult male in your case :) ). It's just a thought... Though with some time and gentle perserverance, I'm sure he'll love you just fine.

Congrats on that cutie, and we like you Joe, if that's any consolation. :blowkiss:

FUNNY, we wont have that in my house...lol

He probably thinks you are going to cut him up and serve him for dinner :eek: :P :colbert:

Oh lordy I grew up around German Shepherds (huge big males) and one little red female Doxie and boy was she a handful LOL. They definitely pick who they like and who they don't, sorry to say, and can be quite protective and nippy. April (the little red hellion) for instance tried to bite a cop giving a family member a speeding ticket....not nice and didn't impress Mr. Policeman at all when the red ball of fury leapt across the driver's seat and tried to eat his hand (which was currently engaged in handing over said speeding ticket).

Personally I'd try to get yours to like you by being the only family member that feeds the pup, takes it outside for walks, gives it treats and so forth. If it piddles on the floor, have some else do the discipline part for now. Once they figure out you do nice stuff for them, they generally start to see you as someone that is okay and part of their "pack".

Well tonight puppy and i had a good night, ater dinner my said she was going to give the kids abath (got out scott free on that...cool) while puppy and i bond. and it worked, he fell asleep on my lap while i petted him and i myself just woke up. so all in all pretty cool....

Progress, EXCELLENT! (and a nap to boot :gj: )

Cute boy. Since you got him from a breeder I'm assuming he comes from a line with no back problems.
It's good to know you guys had a good night, hope it leads to many! :)

Nope, no problems. we met puppys parents they both looked perfect, any the breeder showed us vet papers on all his dogs so we felt very comfortable with him and his dogs. that was a major concern of ours looking at this breed..
