We spent the last couple day's debating what we should name our dog and decided that he was indeed a Rufus. Not only does it fit his personality perfectly, but it also rhymes with doofus. And he is one big doofus.
He has been a pretty good dog over the past week. He is well on the way to being house trained. When in his normal confines (i.e. the kitchen area), he lets us know when he has to go out. However, when roaming the rest of the house he always seems to pee on my clothes. (I think he has an oedipal complex.)
We've now stepped up his doggy socialization. He is getting pretty socialized with people (because everyone wants to pet him). Other dogs different story. He flips between "Hey, I really want to play with this other dog" and "Holy Sh!t get me out of here." We went to a dog park last night and he spent the whole time between my legs or trying to get me to pick him up. Now if only we could find some kids to throw in the mix.

I love the name! He is adorable! Give him some time. He is still so young and older dogs can be intimidating and mean. Hopefully you can find another pup for him to play with. Keep the pictures coming!
