Training Dextor..

I got a dog. Now before you judge me on how much I paid for him, I know. I've heard it all. It was WAY too much to pay for a dog. If I weren't in my shoes, I'd probably slap myself in the face. But in my defense, he's really cute!(Not a very good defense...I know.)
Anyway...He was $580. He's an Australian Shepherd, he has all his shots, he's 9 weeks old, and he's really healthy.

Problems?
There are a few things we need to work on. Such as potty training, not jumping on the other dogs, not chewing up my shoes, not eating cat poo, not eating the other dogs' food, not biting, not attacking the cats, learning to sit and stay, learning to stay asleep at night, not eating Jocelyn's homework, and learning that there are certain areas that he shouldn't potty at.
The good news is: he knows his name and he (sometimes) comes when you call him.
We have quite a ways to go.
