I am sorry if anyone does not believe I could have made this error. So be it. As to the comment about size - do you really think it would be ok for Angus that his companion is twice his size? Does size really not matter. I've never had two dogs at the same time - I just assumed that they should be close in size. Does anyone else have two Yorkie's with a large size difference and they are still good buddies? Am I just being over protective of Angus? |
You can never tell what their adult weight is going to be. Esme was 1.8lbs when I brought her home at 12 weeks. It appreared she was going to be about 5lbs. At a year she weighs 9.4lbs. There are no gaurantees. Would I ever return her? Nope. She could grow to be 29lbs, or 50lbs and I wouldn't give her back...
Esme's BEST friend and favorite playmate is a tiny chi named Lucy. Lucy is 4lbs and looks so fragile. Esme is TWICE her size. Let me tell you, even though Esme is double Lucy, they play VERY well together!!! I really don't think your dogs have to be the exact same size to play together... My inlaws have an ENORMOUS boxer, and Esme plays with her too!!!
Please don't let size discourage you from keeping this pup!
