She was just a little tiny rat-looking thing...and it was in the middle of a huge storm. She was the best family pet, until Ethan was born. Then she started acting up and throwing all of his sterilized bottles on the floor and she would sleep on Ethan's stomach at night. She was really jealous so this is why we are a bit apprehensive with Elbow. I know Cats and dogs are different...but I can't help but be wary about the safety of my children. |
My son's name is Ethan he is 9 now. I never heard the name that much at all until I had him. Now it's everywhere. Congrats on the new baby. Do you know what it is? How old is Ethan? I hope that it works out that you will keep Elbow. She will be great for yout two little ones.
What we did with our Shih Tzu when Ethan was born, when I brought him home. I laid him on the bed put Precious on the bed and just let her sniff him all over and gave him a few kisses that's all there was to it. She never really paid any attention to him after that.
