We did exactly the same thing. We had a 16 year old yorkie Dexter when we got Abbey. He liked her but she was far too energetic for him. He was too old and tired to play. He tolerated her but mostly he would run and hide. So we ended up getting Owen as a playmate for Abbey and everyone was happy and got along famously. Poor Dexter finally passed away. We sure miss him alot but now Abbey and Owen are the best of buds. I certainly recommend having more than one. |
