CTskifreak Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Hi there puppy! We just got a black Labrador puppy...about 8 weeks old. Female that's named Nell. Could only be with her for 2.5 days, and then I had to come back to school. AJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kmillerusaf Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Hey puppy! The innocent ones are always the ones you find in the hamper chewing on your dirty socks!

LuLu Posted February 25, 2009 Author Share Posted February 25, 2009 Oh he is definitely full of mischief! But luckily he's in that stage where he plays for 20-30 minutes and then passes out for about 5 hours. LOL And he is such a cuddler. If you leave the room, he has to be right behind you. If you're standing by the sink or whatever, he'll sit between your feet. He even tried to jump in the shower with me. I'm sure I won't think he's so cute when he takes off down the hallway with one of my sneakers though. haha And to CT - that really sucks about having to leave the new pup. Black Labs are soooo beautiful. She'll probably be huge when you get to see her again. I'm here. What are your other two wishes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuLu Posted February 26, 2009 Author Share Posted February 26, 2009 Oh he's loads of fun. And such a little hellion! He loves chasing the cats and biting their tails. lol Acclimating he and my other dog has been harder than anticipated though. She's not very fond of him in the least.

Dogs have feelings too! I hope so. She never had a problem with my neighbor's two nutty dogs running rampant in our house, but this little guy has her panties in bunch, so to speak. lol She seems like she's trying to accept him, but my dad said it will take time. What I don't like is that after he's been near her water and food bowls, she won't use them unless they've been cleaned out. Dad says she doesn't like his scent because he's not fixed yet. Not sure if that's the case or not, but it does make sense. So I guess we'll see what happens. If there is still animosity after he's fixed, I'll probably have to find him another home. I hate the thought of that, but my Gidget was here first so she holds rank. And I can't bare the thought of her being miserable all the time because of him. But hopefully they'll eventually be best buds. lol I'm here. What are your other two wishes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corona Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 A few years ago a co-worker brought in a very young Teacup Yorkie she bought in Missouri. Teacup is an overstatement. This pup was (I'm not exaggerating) the size of a Twinkie. You could hold the entire dog in one cupped hand. And even though it was very young she was feisty as all get-out when she was awake. And because of her size she could make sudden moves that would almost defy gravity. She was hysterical to watch and play with. After 15 minutes of intense play she would nap for an hour.

Haha that's hilarious! I love those Teacup Yorkies, but dogs that small wouldn't survive in my house. Plus, they tend to have more health problems than a regular runt. But they sure are cute. And there's nothing better than watching puppies (and kittens) play. As I write this Shamus is trying to steal my flip flop. lol I'm here. What are your other two wishes?

Corona Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Yeah, I don't think it's wise to pair pups of significant size differences together. An older adult dog would be more patient with a smaller young pup, as long as you showed the older one more love and attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted February 28, 2009 Moderators Share Posted February 28, 2009 An older adult dog would be more patient with a smaller young pup, as long as you showed the older one more love and attention. It all matters really the attitude the older dog has. About twenty five years ago we got a puppy and our older female dog attacked him as soon as he was put on the floor, which was more of a dominance thing than anything because she could've easily killed him. It worked too because he was instantly her subordinate and they were like the Dynamic Duo of get into any and everything, those two were a ruckus together, but both have passed on long ago.

Oh how I WISH that was how my two were. When we brought Shamus home on Sunday, my Gidget took off and hid in my parent's room. For 3 days she wouldn't come out unless he was locked up somewhere. Then Thursday night she decided to play with him. They played for a good hour or so, ran each other ragged. Friday morning they did the same thing. But that was it; and she won't stay around him long. She's still having issues with eating and drinking. She will *not* touch the water or food if he's been around it. Nor will she use the wee-pad if he's so much as even walked on it. So I don't know what's gonna happen. I'm here. What are your other two wishes?

Moderators DennisD Posted February 28, 2009 Moderators Share Posted February 28, 2009 I used to dog-sit my sons two Boxer dogs whilst he was abroad, and they were hilarious at times. Whenever I went out, the two of them would sit on the stairs and look out of the window until I came back. I'm guessing they may have moved, but they were always there at the window when I got back. I came in the back door one day, and surprised them: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take them on walks together which is something dogs like to do anyway since they're into that whole aerobics thing. That way she'll understand that he isn't going to hurt her, can be trusted, etc., and that she has a new friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
