I just want to suggest one thing to think about. If you are going to keep one of the pups you should consider introducing that pup to your Gizmo under controlled circumstances. Once a dog like that is full grown and sees a small dog they sometimes think it is something to chase. If they are going to be sharing space it would be best to introduce them while the dog is young. I know the GSD's are outdoor pets but it would be much easier on you if you can have peaceful coexistence and not have to be worried about the two mixing and your little one getting hurt. If you are not up on dog training you may want to enlist the aid of someone who can help you carefully teach them to get along. I used to have a Collie and a Maltese in the same home. While they were not best of friends they got they were both well behaved. I'm sure many here have both large and small dogs that get along. Proper training is imperative. |
