Hi everyone! I haven't introduced myself yet but I have a 9 month old male yorkie named Roscoe. Let me start out by saying he is my world! He is always with me and my husband and has always gotten our attention whether he wants it or not
He is the most sweetest loving baby I have ever had the honor to know! I can't say enough amazing things about my sweet little guy, I just am madly in love with him! (what husband?
)
Anyways, so I really wanted him to have a playmate for life because no matter what kind of companion I am to him, I can't replace a dog campanion. We adopted a 12 week old female yesterday from the best breeder I ever come to know. It's only been one night so I am not worried about anything really but at first Roscoe seemed scared of her for a few hours. He is a very socialized dog, but only around kids, cats, and humans. He has only played with dogs on a couple of playdates that we set up at the dog beach. But nothing permanant you know just a few hours along the beach or at the dog park.
Now he is acting like he is jealous of her. I am trying so hard to let him know that he is my baby and the love of my life and that it will never change. I have been trying to spoil him rotten. He is growling at her though especially when we are holding her. If I put her opn the ground though he barks and growls. I know it will take awhile, but I also don't want this to effect my bond with her. I am already in love with her too, but right now she is spending more time with my husband then with me because I feel like I am letting Roscoe down everytime I hold her and he sees me.
What do I do so that we can all be one happy family? I just want my little guy to know he is everything to us and that will never change and that he is my best friend, but I do want to be able to have the same relationship with Sukie our new little girl too. My husband works a lot and her bonding to him more then me scares me because he is only home on the weekends and I am her main caregiver. I want her to love me and be my companion the same way Roscoe is yet I feel to bad being around her because of my little main squeze! Please help me!!
