When I got Cali in August I had never had 2 dogs at the same time for the exact reason I felt I was being disloyal to my existing dog. I have a 9 year old pom who has always been aloof and snappy but I love her with all my heart. I really missed having a Yorkie, had 3 in the past, and decided I had to get one. Cali loves to jump all over my pom and Maya growls at her and chases her down a few times a day but wil lay togther nicely at other times. I know what you mean when you say that the existing dog looks at you like you traitor. But it has been 8 months and both are working it out and they get upset when one goes to the vet with out the other. Also when I walk then Maya is older and slower so she follows behind us and if we get to far ahead Cali looks back and waits for her to catch up. It's so cute becasue Maya will try and run to catch up as if she knows Cali is waiting for her. I would give it some more time and I bet they will get along fine. Good luck |
