My groomer today also said that she didn't think Rosie would do well with another. She said Rosie was too spoiled.  Don't know why she would think that!  Anyway, here are a few pictures of Rosie and Mrs. B. Attachment 347577 Attachment 347578 |
Had Rosie ever met the other pup before? Was the play date at your house? Maybe the bad manners were just possessiveness and uncertainty, rather than Rosie being too spoiled to enjoy the company of another small dog. I like to introduce my dogs to others on neutral territory. Levi couldn't care less about who or what comes in our house...but the non-yorkie, Dallas, gets very possessive and hateful when a strange dog comes to visit. And he usually LOVES other dogs.
If you really want to add a second dog, I'd keep trying to socialize Rosie with other pups every chance you can. Doggie daycare, parks, meetups, hanging out with friends and their dogs, etc. Maybe she will warm up.
Sorry this play date didn't go so smoothly!
