new dog

Question
I just got a 18 month old boxer from a friend that couldnt take care of him anymore. I was wondering how long it will take for bently to settle in? To where he isnt looking for his old owners or crying for them.

Answer
Hi Mike,

On average in about 4-6 weeks he'll settle in and it'll be as if he was always with you. Just be patient with him and give him alot of affection through play and daily walks, he'll bond quicker with you. Establish a daily routine and continue it for the rest of his life with you, it will make life much better and balanced for you both. Thank you for your question.
