I'm adding my prayers that God returns Blitzen to you safely. I can only imagine how frantic you are.

My question. My Abbie is an almost 4 pound little girl, who will be 2 in November. I've been thinking about getting another pup but have some concerns. First of all, my concern is for Abbie. Since she is so little, I worry about getting another that might grow bigger and hurt her inadvertantly while playing. One of my sons has a 4 pound chihuahua and they love to tumble and roughhouse. Also, she's a jealous little thing and whenever one of the grandpuppies are up in my lap, that's where she wants to be too and will try to nudge them away. Secondly, I've heard that since they are terriers after all, that sometimes they will fight to the death or do seripus damage to one another. Has anyone ever heard of this happening? Is she too old to accept a new puppy? Thanks for any advice.
