| New Yorkie coming home soon!! So I found a Yorkie pup he is a recuse, he's 8 weeks old. I went to go see him today and I fell in love with his quite sweet nature, he will need his shots I can pick him up Monday or Tuesday. So that gives me some time to get puppy things like pee pads, pen or crate, food, toys,blankets, bowls... is there anything I am forgetting? I have an American Eskimo who's 4 yrs old is there any way to prepare him for a new member? He's been around dogs before I had a Terrier mix before when he was a puppy but she passed away, so since then he's been the only pet we've had. I'm worried he'll be a little jealous how can I avoid this or remedy it if it does occur? He's a very sweet and adaptable dog, we fostered a cat before and he took to her right away and they played well together. But since I'm bringing another male dog into the pack I want to prepare him and be cautious. Thanks |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Hi and welcome to YT ! Your new baby sounds precious - I bet you can't wait to get him home. When we brought our Marcel home, we just payed extra special attention to our older guy, Wylie. Wylie became a little needy/attention seeking for about a month, so we just supported him through that. We always give him the treats first etc, since he is the oldest. One thing to be careful of, of course, is the difference in size btwn your dogs...as you probably already know.

| ngratulations on your new family memeber, how exciting!! Wow,that's amazing that you found such a young pup in rescue! Does the rescue group have the Mom too? If so, maybe you could ask them to keep the pup till it's more mature at 12 weeks? That would be so much better for the lil guy!

Thank You, he's home now and everything is going great, the first day Casper(my Eskie) was being very motherly, but now he kind of avoids Mickey, since he likes to play with his tail. lol Thank you again for the advice. | |
