Honestly, it's different for every dog. Bouncer wanted NOTHING to do with Lotte the first 2-3 weeks we had her. And I've had her since February now....and honestly,he is still getting used to her. He doesn't want her too close to him, but then there are times where I've caught them licking each other (i call it kissing lol) and sleeping next to each other. So another thing is sometimes you can't tell. Bouncer will appear in front of me to be quite irritated by Lotte's presence, but when he thinks I can't see him he's fine with her. Sometimes it just takes a few weeks. Sometimes it can take two months. Your baby will adjust. And you need to be SUPER positive about the whole experience. Give him treats everytime the new baby comes nearby. Don't spend any more attention to the new baby than you do with yours. Make it equal. You don't want him jealous that this one is taking his place. The biggest thing is you don't want the daily routine to change. it can really throw our guys off and make them nervous fo what is going on. Bouncer always had his days at work with me. Even now, almost three months later, I STILL make sure that he has at least one day a week where when we go to work, Lotte stays home and he and I get our day to be together. I wish you luck and hope you can keep the baby. it is work helping the adjustment along, but in the end it is so worth it.
