Claire!
I didn't know that you had gotten another dog! What an experience! How did you first feel about bringing home another dog! I know that your relationship with Jazzie is just as close as ours with Tyson, and I certainly had feelings of guilt about bringing home another dog, like I was taking love away from Tyson (crazy, I know). I wonder if you had the same feelings. But as you've seen, its so great, and the dogs love having someone else around!
Good luck with your new addition! They look lovely together!
Yes a big experience for us!
Jazzie was just starting to settle and giving us some peaceful days lol but me being me I wanted another, I thought it over for months
and then Patrick said I don't think it would be right, he didnt want another dog moving in to Jazzie's space cus as you and can tell he is OUR world just like Tyson and EVERYONE elses doggies on here, so he swayed me away from the idea, then out of the blue one day on here a member emailed me and said she knew of a doggie just like Jazzie, she needed a home!
I mentioned it to Patrick and he gave me the look "not again" lol so he said get more info on her, she looked beautiful, anyway when I asked and the lady found out more about her she had been rehomed :(((( how sad was I, so it gave me the bug again for another but this time Patrick had agreed, so I looked around for adult pointers but couldn't find a suitable one, then found Jif.....I had my reservations but knowing Jazzie and how he is with other doggies I really felt it would do him good and good company!
We introduced them at my friends house first just after we picked Jif up and then drove home back to Wales with them both in the back of the car together.......haven't looked back since....but I do not give any more attention to one or the other and I make sure when we have visitors and clients who come to get there hair done that they have to love Jazzie first and then the puppy ,this probably sounds mean but it's the only way I can be able to not have any guilt feelings.
Jazzie shares all his toys and even his bed in the day time but come the evening Jazzie has to have his space, so today I went and bought Jif a new bed and he now sleeps next to Jazzie.......sorry if I have rambled.....thanks for all your wonderful comments and your all such a friendly bunch too, we all send big big hugs to you all, love Claire and Jazzie and Jif oxoxoxoxo
btw Benedict....my home is always OPEN, anytime you'd like a weekend away let me know! xx
