| I have Bridget, a yellow lab and Bella, a yorkie/pomeranian.
There's ups and downs to both
Bridget is a huge lumbering brute of a dog. She's 65 pounds and thinks she belongs in your lap. She drools, sheds, pants incredubly loud and barks constantly. And even tho she's 4, she still suffers from happy lab syndrome and is hyper as all get up. The thing that really irks me about her is how she's always growling at Bella. Bella could be on the other side of the bed and Bridget still growls at her. Otherwise, they get along fairly well. I don't think Bridget knows how to 'play' with other dogs since she pretty much ignores them and loves on people all the time. I could do without the barking, drooling and shedding but she's such a pretty and intelligent dog. Helps me overlook the things that drive me nuts about her.
Bella is the complete opposite. She's such a sweet funny little dog with a big attitude. She is really my constant joy. Bella hardly barks, doesn't shed, doesn't drool all over me. Does the funniest things (her zoomies around the house, howling at her image in the mirror, burying her toys and bully sticks where ever she can) and the sweetest (jumping up just to give me kisses, having to lick the water off my feet after I get out of the shower, waiting for me to go to bed) Bella's potty training and obsession with my undergarments are my frustrations with her. Bridget was potty trained by 6 months old. We're still working with Bella and she's 9 months old. And as much as I hide my underwear from her, she manages to find it and chew on it. |
