I love all the things that's mentioned here, but I especially love having a big dog in bed ;D

That's my favorite part too.

He was walked before hand, I can't over walk him though because of his shoulders. I have decided that next time I'm going to try it without Pogo's Dad around, I think he gives off the wrong energy and tries to push it to work too fast.

Well we finally had our first meeting. Tub and Pogo smelled each other a little bit and were fine. Butt however started barking and carrying on as soon as he saw him. If we ever let them get close enough Butt would lunge and grab Pogo. We kept separating them and would walk more, but it never seemed to help. I'm not sure what to try next, I don't want Pogo to get hurt.

Thanks, I will watch everything very close around the kids when they are here. I always do around Pogo because he is as gentle around them as my boys are. I think they are beautiful too, but I may be a bit prejudice;)

The guy moving in isn't my BF, he's my ex husband. We have remained friends after our divorce and with the economy we are going to live together to save some $. So Butt is very used to him and we have argued in front of him in the past. Pogo generally only jumps on people when he first meets them, I expect it,so I always block it. I think it will help if Pogo is taken for a long walk, before , because that does help him calm down. We are going to try and have them meet on neutral ground as soon as I get my mind set right and quit worrying about my boys getting hurt.

All 3 boys are fixed. Tub at two is still a puppy and believes everyone and everything in life was put here for his sole entertainment. Butt is the alpha here and the protector of all, particularly me. For along time he wouldn't let anyone in the house. Now he as a select group of adults that are allowed in and he doesn't bother even barking at them. He is 100% pushover for my 4 yr old niece and 6 yr old nephew. Alyssa can wrap him up like a baby in a blanket, curl up with him to sleep,have him be her dolls horse, what ever she wants.He's not leash aggressive at all, both the kids can walk both Butt and Tub with out any problems and the boys way out weigh them. The other dog Pogo is more hyper then my boys, but that could be my opinion since I live with 2 Saints that live to sleep:) Pogo moves fast, jumps on people,reacts quick if the kids touch him and he doesn't like it, just an in your face dog.He plays with other dogs and has never had any problems. I really don't think he would challenge Butt at all or show any aggression towards either of the my boys. My main concern is how Butt will react to him when we introduce them and how he will react the first time the kids are around.

What is the best way to introduce another dog to Butt? He has never been fond of other dogs, he excepted Tub because he was a puppy when he came home. I'm thinking about having a guy move in with me and he has a dog. I've been putting it off for months because I haven't been sure how to introduce the dogs. The other dog is a med. size (90 lbs) male mixed breed. Should I introduce Tub first since I think he will except him fine? Should they all be introduced together? Should I muzzle Butt to make sure he doesn't bite? All help will be greatly appreciated.

Here's the PM she just sent me on the bird board:

Hi Michelle,. Wow I can't believe she went through all those surgeries with her dogs. I am freaking out with just this one. Please tell her thank you very much. She explained everything great. I will have to go back to re read her posting as time goes on to make sure I am doing everything correctly. I am so glad that I posted this on the forum as to I have alot of information on this from her. Can't thank you enough.
