Thanks! I really do vacuum, it just doesn't look like it! (He's not all hair, but there's a lot of it anyway!)

Dogs like having their own cave (crate).

Emmy, JujuTiny is a very attractive dawg.

no no- heep all the advice this way you want! I really appreciate it. We always had dogs when I lived at home with my parents-even puppies, but this is "my" first pup and I could use the words of wisdom. He is only 12 weeks old so we have a little ways to go still.
You know I have been trying to type this for over 10 minutes now~ I hardly get through a sentence and I have to go get that darn cutie out of trouble! I don't even know what I was going to say anymore, but I am sure it was more than that! Ha-duty calls!

Buddy, Tiny and Bearware are all adorable! I love their photos and their names.
Congrats, Silly, on your sweet new puppy!

Oh dear heavens, I went to a Vegetarian Festival this afternoon and came home with a puppy from the local SPCA. WHAT WAS I THINKING?!?!?!

Lol,I was laughing thinking about your cats. He is sooooo adorable!!!
Those were some smart people you got him from. What better place to have puppies for adoption than a vegetarian festival?

I blame this entirely on the vet. He is the one who invited me to go!

My cats are upstairs and will not come down with "that thing" in their house. They will adjust, right?? RIGHT??????

The puppy is Luna, by the way. I guess I should say Lunajuju to avoid getting in trouble.

Oh Luna is so cute! I would have taken her home too! Poor kitties-rude awakening,eh?

Buddy is doing pretty well. I blocked off our dining room area for him to hang out in when I am too busy to watch him (it's all tile) and he loves it-lots of room to play and he can still see what is going on in the house. At night he prefers to sleep on a blanket next to our bed and that is fine by me. I actually have managed to get up every time he has and get him outside before any accidents. He is so smart-learning already.
I am begining to think that his dad may have been a pitbull though-because of his stance and the fact that when he grabs on to something he really locks his jaw and there is no getting it away from him

Anyway, thanks for all your help everyone!

wow, hermione, what a sweet puppy! yes, the cats will adjust, but it will probably be a little while.
how's puppy doing in a new household? too bad you got him on a sunday afternoon and not a friday, when you could have a couple of days home with all the pets.

Here's another one.

Luna is a she. The estimate is she will reach 40 pounds. She's darling, but I am starting to feel overwhelmed. I haven't had a dog in about a decade and I know they are a lot more work than cats. Plus I LOVE my cats and hate to see them upset. Oh dear heavens! I'm nervous and excited at the same time.

It's going to be okay, right?!?

Hermie, it will be work for a little while, but it will get better.

I have three cats, and two of them have adjusted to the puppy already. The third is working on it.

One good idea is to get a puppy gate, so the puppy has to stay on one side and the cats on the other. That way the cats can get to know her, while they are "safe".

Just be patient, and they'll make their peace with each other.

Yup Hermi, like Karunna said, they will make their peace with each other, but it does take time.

Your kitties are going to survive and so will Luna...

Lunajuju is just beautiful AND has a beautiful name. Jujuluna also has a nice ring to it.

Do not name that dog Luna! Too whoo whoo goofy. Juju is the far better choice.

Blanca, She is white. Georgian. Anyone who is an oil painter knows that one. Oh please lose Luna.

You wear clogs and you don;t own an SUV or have golden retrievers, right? So step out of the obvious. Bat or Juju is the best choice.
