I was trying so hard to give them both equal attention, but of course, the puppy needs more attention because he's being potty trained. Plus, I watch him closely to make sure he doesn't get into anything or get hurt.
The only advice I can give is to be patient and give them time. At first, Jake didn't want anything to do with Jackson. Now they are playing ALL the time, and they seem to enjoy each other. They will even snuggle together at times. I make sure that anytime I pay attention to Jackson, I also pay attention to Jake and tell him what a good boy he is. Of course, when Jake sees me holding Jackson, he gives me "that look".....you know the one. It just takes time, but in the end, they become good friends and have so much fun together. |
Believe me, I know that look, the dirty crossed white of the eye look
. And then this biff huff sound and he turns away and wont listen to me.
Yesterday this one got his third Rabies booster so he is good to go until 2010, so today he seems under the weather which is fine by me. Wanted to get him all done before the new boy arrived. I am so excited you have NO clue, even got the jitters
. Its a sweet sweet feeling

So taking them to walk or wee and poo at different times is best?
