5/5/04 - Little Alex's mom came to pick him up tonight. When we went down to introduce him to his new mom, it was the 1st time i can remember Alex being calm and stationary :o)) I warned his new mom that this is not the Alex I have known. He is usually non stop, never standing still long enough to get a look at that cute face. She said she totally understood, as she has the female version of alex, a petite 6 month old pug girl who couldn't wait for a brother to help her burn off some of that puppy energy.
 I would pay good money to see these 2 together, frolicking about, non stop, as long as it's in someone else's house :o))) sound like Alex is going to have a great new life, deserving for this wonderful little guy. So good luck Alex, don't be insulted that all my older guys had big smiles on their faces as you were heading out the door. they just realized that they are going to be able to get a nap in, undisturbed starting today.
 I for one will be watching for updates on this little guy. Sounds like a match made in heaven.

5/4/03 - Alex is pending adoption.

4/11/04 - Alex continues to do well here in our home and playing with all the dogs that move in and out. He is a ball of fire and loves to play non-stop. I have taught him how to sit (mostly when I have a cookie in hand) and he goes on command outside. There have only been a couple of accidents in the house lately and only #1. He really is great little boy and if you have another dog that
you think will keep up with him and his playing he just may be the guy for you.

3/30/04 - Alex has just arrived at the Guardian Angel Boxer Haven...what a cute little boy this guy is and a BALL of energy!! He does not stop for one minute. I had a 5 month old boxer girl here and they just played forever. She left today so you can see he is resting comfortably in our laundry basket.

This boy will definitely need obedience training and another doggy and/or some kids to play with to use up his energy. 
He needs work on his housetraining but is dong much better. I am working with him going on command. I tell him "go potty" and I would say about 90% of the time now he does go.
We would also like to see him go to a home in which he won't be home for long hours, being a pup and crating for long periods doesn't usually do well.
Alex is doing super with all the dogs in the home, large, small, big and little and he is fine with the cats as well. He does nip a bit with his puppy play so we are working on that as well.
