    Hi All,

    I'm a newbie :). My pup Dexter (yellow lab) is 10 weeks old and a little rascal but I love him to bits. He's the cutest thing! Dex is my first ever dog so its been a complete eye opener, as you can imagine its totally changed our lives (mine and my boyfriend) but in a completely brilliant way. I look forward to seeing him all the time, in fact I'm out with friends tonight but secretly just want to be with my dog haha. I was going to upload a picture of him but not sure how to do it?

    Hi and welcome!!

    Great to have another Dexter on board :)

    With photos you'll need to put them on a photo sharing site first, like Flickr, then copy the bbcode and paste it into your post here (if that makes no sense just sing out :) )

    Re: Newbie :)

    Welcome to you and Dexter! Was he named after the serial killer, too? We'd love to see pictures of him; if Rachael's comment is gobbledygook, there's more help in the technical section :)

    Hi, many thanks for the welcome :). I think I know what you mean, I used to have a photobucket account (probably still do actually) so I'll set one up and post some pictures of the cutie.

    And he sure was named after the serial killer ;) LOL But also we just loved the name, I liked it for our future kids too but my boyfriend vetoed that so the dog it was haha.

    Just wanted to say I've found this website and forum so helpful, every question I can think of seems to have been answered and there's some great tips that I've used/will use in the future. Just bought myself a clicker too which I will be trying out this weekend, so I've very grateful :).

    Watch iiiiiiiiiiit! Nothing wrong with that at all,is there CarolineHollyB?

    Welcome to the Forum , Our Dexter is our first dog too, he's 2.7 yrs old now and the 4 legged love of our lives too! In the time we've had him we've come home from 3 holidays early ;D ;D ;D so I understand completely.
    Your Dexter is absolutely scrumptious...I never had that really puppy stage as we live in Dubai and they have to be 4 months to be imported....a hiccup with his DOB had him arriving here at 5 months!
    Enjoy the forum ,lovely to see you here x

    You say that, but I'm sure those innocent eyes are just lulling us into a false sense of security...

    Don't be fooled he can be a little munchkin when he wants too ;) He always had a few mad half hours, usually after a nap where he just runs about - zooming everywhere! And only in the last few days has he stopped howling at night, hope I haven't just jinxed myself there haha.

    Thanks everyone for such a warm welcome!! ;D
