This is my puppy Neo, well, he's not quite mine yet...I have to wait 6 more weeks to bring him home.
Anyways, he's 2 weeks old in this picture, I thought I'd share. I'm so excited. He's a Boston Terrier, which was originally a cross between one of the many terrier breeds and an english bulldog. The bulldog characteristics seem to be the more favorable ones, according to the breeder.

That's an adorable puppy. You're definitely going to have your hands full with him. I had forgotten how much of a little terror a little puppy can be until I puppysat my cousin's eight week old Chihuahua this weekend. God, he was a little high-energy fuzzball with razor-sharp teeth. My poor cats are still nervously looking around the furniture for him.

Luckily, he'll have puppy energy levels, but he won't always be hyper like that. Bostons are great little dogs in that nature, the breeder I am getting him from even brings one of her dogs with her to work every day.
And yes, it's a Matrix reference, most of my pets have been named after some sort of movie/TV reference. (Basil was named after Basil Fawlty.)

Oh, what a cute little puppy. And it's handheld... It kind of reminds me of my Mini Schauzer when I saw him at the breeders, except that he was dark grey and floppy ears.
About the puppy energy level...get a dog trainer! I might have paid the guy $600 but after seeing what he trained my dog in one day, you will be so glad.
