Well, I've gone and done it. I now have a dog.

[Buehler445]

I've joined the ranks of pet owners. This is my first go around with a dog. My parents have had a bunch of dogs, but this is the first one by myself.

Mrs. Buehler445 is a dog fanatic and has been bugging me to get one since the dawn of time. She watches all the Animal Planet shows about dogs, so we finally got one.

Feel free to share any tips or training advice, since I'm a relative n00b.

Oh, and I couldn't help myself. I had to call him "Chief".
