Oh St. John is my favorite! Have you snorkeled at Trunk Bay?

Don't be discouraged if your dog does wind up not liking other dogs. My dog was always raised with other dogs, but around two, like the other person mentioned, he stopped getting along with them. Many people I know would see this as a hindrance and probably would have ditched him.

I still have an amazing relationship with him and we still do plenty of fun things. I still take him on walks, go to the park (not a dog park), and do things like going camping. I just take extra precautions and measures to help ensure we avoid other dogs. We tend to jog/walk in "off" times when less people are out. I've also taught him "leave it" so that when we do pass other dog, I can get his attention. When we go for walks in the park, I pick wide parks with lots of room so we can step off to the side if other dogs are there.

Your pup is so cute, btw! Good luck!!!!

How important is a bed time routine to a good nights sleep?

If it is important, does this vary based on age? For example, is a routine more important for children, teens, or adults? Should a routine be a certain time period long to have the best overall affect?
