Christii, just saw your message in the BB thread. I was afraid to ask not If but When after your recent loss of your baby pup. Oh my goodness, pups are sooo delicious. Lester looks adorable, as do they all. What a decision. How old are they now and when can you get him ? What a great combo, pyrneese and newfee. Please posts pics when he comes home !

Can't find others, but that's my younger one with the family German Shepherd - Max. (She named him when she was 10.)

Just scanned the thread real quick here since I'm listening to Kee & Ren! Dahli! How's your wounded one doing! Kar, three? They're adorable but that's a lot! I have a bit of a bigger back yard than my friends', people always tempt me with more dogs or cats. But I have one naughty cat who will be sure to let me know what he thinks whenever those show up here! One of these days! Christiii, good luck! I agree you'll need to meet them. But that one in your lap looks great! I'll be back! See y'all in the BB threads.

Chy, I have four plus acres, so I have 4 cats (all rescues), 3 dogs (2 rescues) and 2 horses (both rescues). It may seem like a lot, but we all seem to get along well!

well Lucille was adopted while I was still taking to the shelter! Im crushed...I had decided on her, since all my pyr people said I really shoudl go for a female since Beau is pretty shy and submissive. this sucks! Pyrenees puppies are so hard to find, especially under $1000. Beau needs a lil sis...so Im still on the hunt. I feel like Im looking for a Jackalope...they are about as common around here!!!

Christiii, I have two males. Both are submissive. And even if one were dominant, it would work out due to the other being submissive... I'd bring your current dog to the new dog to see how they interact. I would for sure do that no matter what. What would you do if you got a new dog that your old dog totally did not get along with?

I've never had problems with bringing puppies in, whatever the male was like. My JRT is fairly dog aggressive, so the intro to our new pup was a little rough; but they were fine in a few hours. My beagle is very shy and submissive, so I have to work with the pup a little so he doesn't overwhelm him, but they actually have a really good friendship developing. The most important thing in developing that relationship is to walk them together (even if that means one on each side of you). It makes a world of difference in growing that pack relationship.

I never had trouble but I had labs, all labs. Christiii. Yes, obviously you know all about long term and certainly about committment and when you DO get the new puppy, it will be who is meant to be with you and Beau, for a long time. And what a lucky pup she or he will be. I think bringing in a female should work, with Beau. Actually females tend to be trickier to mix sometimes (though mixing un-neutered dogs, especially those used for breeding, can be really really tricky). I know this is a disappointment, but the right one WILL come along!

thank you so much Julie!! that is the litter on perfinder I was trying to get. Lester and Larry are both boys, and Liberty isnt socialized very well. Lucille was the happiest and most well adjusted of the bunch, and really had a face like my girl that just passed away. I think Lester is adorable, but the two different pyr groups are telling me to stick with a female for Beau, so Im a bit worried not to. Beau is so sweet, and doesnt have a mean bone in his body, I dont dont want him to feel uncomfortable in his own home. Ive been in contact with so many people, and no one has anything for under $1000.00 I jsut cant see paying that for a pet! I dont want to show or breed for goodness sakes! I really appreciate you guys!! To top the day off, my mom had her wallet stolen from my boutiue today, and they were already starting to steal her identity...we nipped it in the bud, but so so SO scary, it happened to me 2 years ago. What a crappy day!! (((hugs to you guys!!))) oh, and get this!! AFTER Im told that Lucille was adopted, the girl from the pyr rescue emailed me to tell me that she had gone over to evalate these puppies and they were happy and healthy, which was the info I was waiting for...just came too late is this day over yet?

Awww I'm sorry to hear about Lucille but I am sure your girl is out there just waiting for you. It is strange how that works out. Terrible about your mom's wallet. I am always laying mine down and DH has a hissy fit. I will think about your mom the next time I start to get careless. And I am sending bad vibes to the person who stole it.

Christiii, sorry about that! I knew you own or run a Boutique! ((I was going to get some necklace, also!)) Good luck to you on getting a girl. I have heard that also. They do say it's better to have a female when you already have a male home. {Chew, that's not me in the pic. It's my 17 y o who's going to college to major in Music Ed. in a week or so. But thanks for the compliment! My shepherd is such a sweet boy with me! He knows the pecking order though. When baba(daddy in Chinese) is home with the gang in the back yard(fooling w/any balls), he doesn't listen to me. It's my fault. I trained him to recognize the leader. It's so cute to see him look at me as leader when kids want him to go places or something. To think, I was so scared myself when hubby brought home the shepherd puppy! Karuuna, 4 acr.+ is huge! I don't know how big our BY is, but it contains an abandoned Tennis Court and still room for kids swing set-slide-tree house contraption. A big dog pan(Which he seldom uses now) and a trampoline in the other corner. That's why Max is usually fine in the BY until someone walks by w/ a dog. There's a couple dogs he absolutely has to "follow". .... BTW, my cat is always black from SPCA, since I'm Chinese, I'm not superstitious about black cats. But we do have to hide him every October or so. Love him, too! He's my boy names Mi Mi! The vet on duty in SPCA told me he's a girl and I didn't check. Found out when we took her/him to get fixed five months later! He acts like a dog, wants to be patted and follows me & Max on walks("flying" from tree to tree when he was younger) He's the one who Max doesn't dare to cross! MiMi trained Max well, since they were at one time much closer in size! Till this day Max is still walking around the black cat who's mostly hair submissively, minding his head, shoulder and tail!!

Chy, your daughter is beautiful. Is she your first to leave home for college? I am so glad you keep your black cat in around Halloween. There are some real sickos out there...most rescue centers will not even adopt out black cats during that time.

Sg, I had to report wrong doings around Halloween before. I also called the SPCA before and told them how they flat should not allow some addresses to adopt dogs. (Left tied up all day and only be yelled at later. My other neighbor had to film them and even went to court for the darlings!) Thanks for the good word. That was a couple years ago, she's embarrassed to look that young now a days, but still forces Max to pose and sleep with her.(Max would rather sleep with us of course.) No, this is not my first one leaving. But I have a feeling this will be the first one sticking with it. She's on scholarship and all ...

I just got a call from the vet, Oscar had his surgery today and came thru with flying colours and is up and alert. I told the woman to give him a hug for me, she told me there was no shortage of that everyone was cuddling with him, I think they might want to keep him! I should be able to bring him home tomorrow.
