Not to worry! They will be the best of friends before you know it. I know this may sound crazy, and I am a little crazy, however I always talk to my pets, and I would tell your older pet that this is her little girl, and you got her for her, and it is her baby to take care of. Hold them both at the same time, and when your older dog is not on your lap, or the puppy, ask the older dog, where is your baby, go find your baby, when she does pick them both of and tell her what a good girl she is and how much you love her, and how proud of her you are about the way she is taking care of her new baby!!!!! Trust me, let her think you got the puppy for her, not you, and she will come around before you know it. She needs a little extra love right now, and always give it to her, always pick her up first, than the puppy so she knows you think she is just wonderful, and that she is in charge of the new puppy, and needs to teach it to be housebroken, how to play etc. Doggies love to have a play mate, everything will work out fine, and I can't tell you how happy i am that you have two little babies now! I am a breeder, and I only sell my puppies in pairs, everyone who gets my puppies are so happy they have littermates, as they are already bonded, and the pressure is off you when you are unable to take your baby with you. Everyone always gets another Yorkie, you just can't have one, and i have always had at leat a 6 pac, they all love each other and if I take one and not the rest, they get really worried about the one i took and can't wait to give her a wonderful greeting, like I'm sooooooo glad your back, we missed you!
Let us know how you are doing and pictures would be great! |
