I have 8 week old boxers. I have a boy and a girl. I have started trying to potty train them. However, I am not sure if I should be training both at one time, or taking my time with one at a time. I want to have well mannered dogs, but it is a little overwhelming have two puppies. I am not too sure which direction I should.

Are they from the same litter? It sounds as much. The difficult problem with having puppies from the same litter is that they tend to bond to each other rather than to their master. So I definetly would suggest training them seperately. For things such as potty training, this would be difficult since puppies usually need to go outside at the same time (after eating, sleeping, etc). But for the basic obedience, i'd crate one dog and train the other, and then switch it around. That way, not only do both dogs get the training and attention they need, they also learn to be independent and alone. Hope this helps!
