Well the relationship between Piper and Pup-pup is, um, how should I explain it? Non-existent! Yep, there isn't a relationship. She's not a happy camper about the new addition. I didn't think it would be quite like this regarding the new duo. He has no problem with her but she is completely unimpressed by his presence in her world. All I have to say is, I think it's a good thing we didn't wait any longer. Because clearly she was getting too comfortable being the only fur-baby. Getting her to accept him might be a bigger challenge than getting pup-pup housebroken.
In another update, I was pleasantly surprised how well pup-pup did his first night home. We did stay up a little late but he slept until close to 6:00 this morning. He slept in the laundry basket with blankets and one of Cody's/Piper's beds in the bottom of it. Yeah, things I guess didn't start off well for them as Piper had to relinquish a bed to the newbie. We saved 2 of the boy's old beds for the future pup-pup. The two beds we saved are more "puppy" appropriate than the one he was forced to sleep in last night. We needed him to be somewhat contained so the laundry basket was the obvious choice. Maybe soon we'll remember where we stashed those two beds? LOL!
Of course we still have dog stuff around here. So we aren't starting from zero but last night I told Brad I felt a little unprepared. We have certain things but we need a few "puppy" items. It's been raining like crazy here in recent days. So we waited to go get "puppy" items this afternoon after some of the rain passed. If you are in the DFW metroplex have you been washed away yet? The amount of rain since September arrived has to be approaching a record by now!
