I got a new baby about 3 weeks ago. My 9 mo old (zoey) loves other dogs so she was excited. She got a little jealous, but I always pick up Zoey first when I come home. I always give Zoey her treat before the puppy. We made an extra effort to give her attention. Zoey loves the baby. She sleeps with her head resting on top of the baby like she is protecting her. Im sure your boy will come around. He just has to be sure he is still top dog. Cindy (Chattiesmom) warned me that I would have to let them "work it out" between themselves as long as the puppy was not being hurt. She was right. Now they are best buds!!
