We do play together but how much can I play with him? It can get tiring sometimes (not physically tired but the same game over and over). I was just chatting with the breeder from whom I got Maxx and he said that I should consider getting another chi for Maxx to play with. It'll be easier for him to learn to be friends with one than when he is a bit older. He's 6 months now and I've had him for just 2 months. I'm not sure about getting a second dog yet. I feel like it's too soon since Maxx is my first. I can't imagine going through the papertraining again and all that. Especially since I feel that I was just really lucky that Maxx is a neat freak! Haha! But I do wish that he has another dog to play with. I have a friend who has puppies but they are so much bigger and rowdier than Maxx (though they're just 2 months) that they bite his legs and ears and he just gives out a yelp and spends his time running AWAY from them! When I'm trying to keep him up and he's too sleepy to play, even by himself, I lay him on my lap. True, he dozes off but I think the fact that he's not in his bed yet -- it doesn't count as him calling it a day. Hehe.
