I am getting my puppy (Ernie) tomorrow. He is only 7 weeks old. I had posted earlier with questions about age, and it was recommended that I not get him until he was older. However, the vet said he was able to go now, and the owner wants me to go ahead and get him. Are there any recommendations/suggestions for bringing home a puppy so young? How can I make him feel secure without his mommy and not spoil him? I am also concerned about introducing him to our female lab, who is 5, and hasn't had to share us with another dog. How long should I wait before introducing them? I am SO thankful for this website. It has been extremely helpful
