Strange Request

Hi All, Long time, no post. I have been communicating long distance with someone for a while and he is coming to visit me this weekend for the first time. I hope the boxers like him and vice versa. Wish me luck! Anyone else ever have to deal with this?

I got my baby with my ex partner and she adored him, now im with a new partner she didnt even bat an eyelid! I dont know would having more than one baby change things or would having a male make things different too. Hope all goes well for u.

No experience with the dogs, but lots with the other. LOL

Make sure to let two friends know you are expecting a guest and have them check in with you by a phone call throughout the night and give them two code words to let them know you are ok or not ~ just to be safe. And of course, get his license plate number as soon as he arrives and text it to one of those friends. You can always pretend to check your mail and snag it when you go by the car.

It never hurts to be safe and he SHOULD be impressed by your cautiousness and concern for your own safety. Shows you ain't so easy......lol.

Good luck with him and the dogs! And let the dogs get to know him before he gets to know them, meaning to allow them to check him out and watch your interaction with him. It will be a guide for how you expect them to react to him as well. It will be just fine! Keep your smile on!

Well! They all liked him. But Shaylea barked a lot - for attention, I guess. Haven't had too many men in the house for a while
