UPDATED 1/11/04 - Hi !! Gino & Kobe Here ! Mom just wanted to let everyone @
SCBR that we finished our beginners obediece training class yesterday ! and mom say we
are now OFFICIALLY obedient boys ! (sometimes)(heh-heh). We know all of our basic
commands , sit,stay,wait,come,etc. and FINALLY... how to walk nicely on the leash
(sometimes)(heh-heh)...Anyway we are doing great hope all is well in scbr land !!!
much boxer hugs & wiggles gino & kobe (aka: Gino The Great & Prince Kobesian )

UPDATED 11/7/03 - Hello All ! Gino here ! - just want to let everyone know how well i
am doing, my brother kobe and i start obedience training this saturday !! mommy would
have liked to start us sooner...
but we had to find a class that had room for BOTH of us !! mom & dad are finding out
just how affectionate and mushy boxers are !! since we both think we are BIG lap
dogs,the people at scbr told mom & dad when you have boxers you will never go to the
bathroom alone again (boy did they have us pegged!), my newest hobby is i like dad to
carry me around like a baby ( i get the view from the human perspective!!) and i can do
that all day, just have dad carry me around... i also like to sleep between mom and dad on
the pillow at night - but they have some kind of problem with my snoring, me a
boxer,snore ?? so i just catch some short naps up on the pillow... anyway just wanted to
let everyone know... our forever mom & dad are spoiling us ROTTEN !!! - Boxer Life Is
Good !!! (PS: special boxer wiggles for leann for taking such good care of us in foster
care!)GINO !!

UPDATED 10/27/03 - My brother and I are doing well. We have a big yard and plenty
of room to box.
We have lots of new toys and will soon be going off to obedience training.
We sometimes sleep on the bed with our people but there isn't that much room for all four
of us.

10/5/03 Gino has been adopted.

10/1/03 YA!!! I heard the good news. I have a new mom and dad and they can't wait to
come get me. I have a fenced in yard and lots of toys. But the best news of all is they
want my brother too. They are so excited to get us that they are coming all the way from
NY on Saturday. They just can't wait to bring us home. I know I"m one lucky boy.

9/15/03 Gino is the most wonderful foster ever. He is so loving, gentle and well behaved.
Gino knows his commands and you only need to tell him once. He is fabulous on the leash
and you would never know he was 70 pounds. Gino and Kobe love eachother and are
fairly attached. I think they would do wonderful in a home together. Anyone would be
lucky to have this pair. They have lived with a cat and will chase but not hurt it. They are
good with other dogs, LOVE kids, cratetrained, housebroken and leash trained. What
more could you ask for? Gino is definitely the more serious of the pair and wants to
please so bad. If I was looking for another dog Gino would definitely be it. I can't even
begin to tell you how special he is. So get your apps in  quick.
Gino has arrived. He is a gorgeous dark fawn with natural ears and a docked tail. Gino is
a well loved well cared for boy whos owners change in a living arrangement forced him to
give him and Kobe up. Gino is just the nicest dog I have seen in a long time. He walks
wonderful on the leash, is completely crate trained and housebroken. Gino adores the
kids and is always washing their faces. He seems to like all the other dogs as well. Gino
was wonderful in the car and rode like a gentleman. I can not say enough good about this
dog, he is a sweetie. I promise this boy will not last long so get in your apps now.
