Puppy Love

 All of the kids love Roxie--they love to give her hugs and talk to her and let her lick them.  Carter and Alex love to get her food and give her toys.

  Caroline does so much for Roxie--taking her on walks, taking her out, teaching her tricks and anything else that needs doing.

 But Aaron loves Roxie in a way only he can.  Aaron will "help" Roxie eat her food, also teach her tricks while she is eating (like lifting up her rear leg while she is eating), he also will often help her wag her tail when she isn't doing it herself.  He loves to bury his face in her side and talk to her.  Roxie will just look back at him and lick his face and go on with what she is doing.

He will often give her a hug and tell her "Roxie, I know you love me"

 He is the nickname enforcer--we are only allowed to call her Roxie, Roxie Pup or Fluff Ball...anything else and you will hear about it from Aaron!

  Here she is giving Aaron "paw" as Caroline taught her to do.

These pictures were taken on January 9th, the next day Roxie went to puppy boarding school--to take an advance obedience class.  It is a 3 week class and at least 10 times a day Aaron goes to her crate and asks when Roxie is coming home.  He keeps telling me that he wants Roxie home right now and he doesn't want her to go to school anymore.
