maybe ill be the odd man out but my daughter is 10 weeks old and friday i picked up my yorkie who is 4 months old but already potty trained and knows a few tricks. i think what you did is best.
i dont think i could have got a puppy when my daughter was first born i would have been pullinh my hair out lol for most the time my daughter is a good baby and swayzee actually doesnt even mind the baby lol when baby sleeps im outside with swayzee when she is awake swayzee is asleep lol kinda works for me...
