We're back with Jack

[shais_mom]

I hope things settle down for Jack.
I don't know if I missed this but how old is he?
would Star do better with an older male closer to her age?
just a ramble.
I hope he learns the rules.

he's cute! I hope things start working out with him and Star.

Star is 10, Jack is 2. My first idea was to look for an older dog, but then the possibility of getting Jack came up, and he feels like family, coming from the same kennel as Sherman. Plus, they know us & really felt it would work out well. We were all hoping for the best. Like I mentioned, he does have a loving home, and we'll continue our search. I'm enjoying him while he's here, and he seems to be enjoying himself.

Did you take Star with you when you went to pick Jack out? When we are adding another dog to our crew we take the dog who is least likely to get along with the new one - which means its usually Dazzi. Although it is not a sure fire method, we have found some dogs that definitely would cause trouble in our pack and others that seem to be ignored by Dazzi.

Just a thought.

Yes, Diana, I took Star. Many of the pictures were from the kennel. They seemed ok together, and the trip back went just fine. I know it takes some time to adjust to a new enviornment.

Ohhh, congratulations!! I hope everything works out. The first few months are always the hardest

I know it takes some time to adjust to a new enviornment.

Having a routine helps them too. I found this with these 2 foster dogs. It's been almost 2 weeks and we are all just now settling in with each other. Granted, they have to overcome a few issues and Jack doesn't as he came from a great place. On the other hand, at 2 years, this may be the first time he has relocated to a new situation.

Star could also still be a bit bewildered about Sherman's leaving. We can't explain things to them. They have to have their own time to adapt to change.

Any way, I am glad you are giving it time and chance to work! Wishing you all the best!
