[quote=Anonymous]OP here again, thank you for your replies. I still have some questions. Boxers are considered a large breed right? So that means their bladder is larger than say a chihuahua, right? My kids really want a puppy and one of my kids has ADHD, but I have seen him be exceptionally responsible with small kids and with my friend's dog. I know dogs help kids with ADHD by lowering stress and building time management skills. I'm a super patient person and I'll read a few books before getting a puppy. I can also lower my hours and work 3 times per week (6 1/2 hours per day including travel) for a few months. If we get the puppy at the beginning of summer and the puppy is 2 months old (is that usually how old puppies are when people buy them?), my husband (who works from home during the summer) and my kids will be able to bond, and train the puppy during the hours I'm at work. Then the puppy will be 4 months after they go back to school and my husband back to working at the office. But from what I'm reading it seems that 4 months is still too young to leave crated for 6 1/2 hours without peeing, correct? [/quote]
