Jeff YarchinHome with new fur kid and all is well. Picture on page 2
We gave this serious though and spoke to a friend that is a Vet, and another friend that is a trainer. We decided to go for it.
I think I passed the phone interview today and hope to go get her this weekend.
Since the dogs were together until they were 14 months old there is a good chance they will remember each other to a certain extent. Hope they like each other.

This was the litter when we picked him up:
This was home:

Good luck

mrmn50I knew that you would do this as it is the right thing for you, your wife and the pups.
You are an amazing man.

Spiff_P239You truly are a kind man, Jeff. I hope all of the pups get along well and that everything goes smoothly.

I hope everything works out wonderfully for all of you. I suspect it will.

matthew03Fantastic, Jeff.
I didn't want to give an opinion on FB or here, as I knew you would know better than I how Lucy would handle a new member.
I am so happy to see you chose to bring her into your pack, as I see how deeply you care for your pets.

mrmn50Another reason to be happy for you, me boy.

41So what was their reaction when they met? Did they seem to recognize each other after all these years?
Does she like blueberries?

Good memory! :+)
He definitely remembered her and the farm. He went nuts. He also saw his mother. She remembered him, he didn't care.
She (Greta) is just being very cautious, trying to figure things out. She is very smart and totally focused on people. I believe Sandy now has here own velcro dog.
She doesn't like toys, treats or the crate yet.
We are giving her a day off then we will start training tomorrow. She doesn't know her name yet, even through it has always been her name.

Thank you Michael!
Only day one but she is fitting in perfectly so far. It's amazing how much they are alike. They have the same mannerisms...sit the same, sleep the same, snore the same, pretty cool to see.
Buddy looks like he is asking if she is staying.
The Pack :+)

KevinCWI'm glad you decided to take her.
If you hadn't, I would have strongly considered it, as I'm currently without my dogs, and it is killing me.
It looks like the pack is adjusting. I think the older dog will be a good influence on the younger one, and will keep her in line. Even having a "middle" dog will help as well as it can do both roles.
Fine looking pups you have there.

whododatExcellent news. Glad to see it worked out.
Because son, it is what you are supposed to do.
