Hey everyone thanks for the encouragement and advise! I am on day 3 with our houseguest and things are going nicely. My Fletcher is doing pretty well with her as long as she does not lunge at his face. They are not best of friends yet or anything. Dexter has spent 3 days in my arms or lap! haha poor baby is just terrified of her, I feel sooo bad! But he's probably happy having my arms to lay in or my lap open for him to lay on! I do not leave them alone without crating her and I do not feed them at the same time.

BFs kids LOVE her, she is bigger and stronger and can play rougher with 2 teenage boys than my boys can so they are having a blast with her, shes tired by end of the night thats for sure! Overall she is a really good girl. All would be good if Dexter was not so afraid!

Oh yeah, they all go outside at the same time and are fine with that, and they all get treats at the same time, at night she sleeps in her crate in the kids room at night while my boys still sleep with me and bf.
