I've never broken an ankle, but for some reason I have consistently done damage to the left one as opposed to the right one - I wonder if it subconcious!!!!!

I know that kids pester pets - but what is driving me insane her is absolute disobedience about picking up the puppy - total defiance even when sent to her room. She then lost her TV priveleges, again. It mattered not.

I don't know which is driving me more nuts, the child or the bad attitude of anisette - she does not like this puppy.

i feel bad for your troubles, gabz. i can sympathize with the kid not laying off the dog, but i don't know what to tell you to get anisette to bond with the baby dog. i have never had more than one dog at a time. i wish xs2pup were not so afraid of other dogs. i hope that puppy K in a few weeks will help with that.

Ah, the kiddo is testing her limits (and yours). The TV threat no longer works? Anisette's attitude will probably get better. That is what our vet told us when we brought the husky pup home, and our australian shephard acted like your older dog is doing. It took nearly a month, but eventually they started playing together, and haven't stopped since.
