| Lizzie's first day in her new home..... .....WITH MR. DARCY. I am quite surprised at his behaviour. He is very jealous. If I call her, he comes running and pushes inbetween. If I pick her up, he is at my leg - wanting up. He takes any toy she picks up. Tonight I heard her yip. She was in his bed, and he was tugging at her arm, trying to pull her out....So is this behaviour normal? What is he thinking? Have I made him THAT unhappy? I wish he could understand when I tell him how much I still love him. They were even sleeping close to each other today on the couch, Lizzie was the one who moved over to him, but I thought 'alright!".

| I think he's only letting her know what's his and to show her she's last in line. Just continue to show him the same amount of affection. Taking walks together will strengthen their bond with each other. When you call her, make sure she is the only one getting the attention at that moment. When you call him, then don't show her attention at that moment either. They soon learn, and it won't be confusing for them.

| We had the same issue! Luckily, it has passed! Jaxon would literally attack Bri and I would have to intervene. I was so frustrated, but just like with any "siblings" you have to remain calm and still give them lots of loving. I about cheered the moment that Jaxon actually wanted to be with Bri. They can't be apart now, and even sleep together! Give them time Good Luck! |

Make sure you give Mr. Darcy extra attention. When you feed them or give them treats, give Mr. Darcy first. That way he won't feel slighted. That's what I did with Max when I got Lily and he's much more accepting now. She's still new and he's just letting her know that he's boss
