Just skip the raptor phase and make a good deed, adopt an adult dog.
- Alternatively, embrace chaos and adopt in the raptor phase.
  
  We wanted to adopt an adult dog but fell in love with a Raptor. She's good now but man, never again.
- And then you don't have to toilet train them.
  
  Unless you rescue a dog that has been solely toilet trained on a puppy mat. It's a lot of work to fix it, as i now know
With parrots the second stage lasts 40+ years
- Well, they ARE dinosaurs.
0-4 months should just be poop everywhere all the time
I only have scars from the puppy stage, oddly enough. When their teeth are little daggers and they haven't learned humans don't do love nips.
- Why didn't anybody tell me humans don't do love nips? This whole time I've been raising dogs wrong.
This also applies to min-pins except that instead of 24 months it's 5 years.
- What's a min-pin?
  
  Miniature Pinscher
