I'm so happy that you're getting Thumper a companion. One of my dogs, Bijou, is the type of dog that thrives and does really well when he's with other dogs he can play and spend time with. It's one of the best things for him and he seems so much happier rather than being the only dog in the house. Now with my other two dogs, even though they have bonded with each other and Bijou, they're just fine to be alone. It doesn't seem to affect them as much. Maybe it's just personality differences. I don't know. But it is really something when you see a dog that just begins to flourish and do so well just by having a friend with them, a friend of the same species. |
