it would be best if both of you take to a new adoptee

mr chompski must be polite and i will set a good example.

ki going did leave a bit of a gap for mutt trains mutt as he is .......ummm i am trying to be diplomatic......... best suited to being the best he can be and should probably avoid extra responsibility as he is very busy with teaching cooking for mutts and a variety of physiotherapy skills

Question is, do you want a dog yours is 'in love' with or just 'good friends'. I assume dogs are a bit like people in that respect, but have no experience of them so don't really know.

Siamese is getting on quite well. Both cats seem to have tolerated each other in the house yesterday, or more to the point, Molly seems to have tolerated the siamese. Son not sure whether it is all real or an act put on to upset them and remind them that the cats are the boss at the moment, so progress.

well, ummm, how long is a stick etc, i dont bother with sticks

2 "puppies" can work, a "power couple" can work, "comrades" can work, palace eunuch can work
the human gets to choose is best if the human knows how things work

love from chompski

After some reflection, have decided that the chap we saw isn't a match for us, but also said I'd keep an eye out for an older or lazy one coming in.

wise, a "new"canine in the pack is far more complicated than most consider it

it has to be right for "new mutt" you, and any "old mutt" in the family

human/canine pack is a strange dynamic, both species need their needs supplied, usually it is the human that makes the decisions,

mutts do sometimes adopt, if they do just go with it, it will work out fine

a few doughts from established mutt is normal, extreme violence is possible, the human should be pack enforcer

love from chomps

ps my princess shook me by the nose to establish i am who i am, the man saved me from a parpless existence after 3 shakes, he was a bit slow but he was laughing too much, i was rude and she did have good cause

oops he got the keyboard, pack enforcer says listen to mutts but you choose, it is easier if they want to be family, they will decide who has what role, that is best directed and used well to create a humutt life that works for all

We met the Siamese yesterday. Honour was satisfied with both cats by using one hand to stroke one and the other hand the other cat. Siamese is a bit cheeky, rather more vocal than Molly (which doesn't take much as she is a cat of few words), very slim and delicate looking. Rather than scent mark a hand she tends to give tiny licks. We made sure we pain attention to both equally of course.
