OMG..........I'm just catching this thread now! I haven't been on this weekend. Congratulations!!!! Will Taz have a dogster page? I'm off to check

OMGosh!! A new baby! How wonderful for you. All your worries will melt away as I am sure they are starting too with seeing Ginger warming up. For some dogs it is a slower process and other will immediately love the new addition. I had the same fears when I brought Chopper home, I had very mixed feelings about Duke. Duke is my heart dog! I worried that he would think I did not love him any more or would be angry and nasty towards Chopper out of being "hurt" as he was not the center of all attention. I know we already had Champ but Duke is just so attached to ME and Champ, well she loves everyone equally.

Before you know it they will be best of friends and you will look back and wonder how you ever lived without him. He is a handsome fella, shame on his previous owners for dumping him....but blessed you for being his hero, bringing him home and giving him love.

Please give both your pups a treat and some belly rubs from me.

Yay, Ginger and Taz! Ginger, way to be a big sis. Taz, I don't believe I've ever met a dog before that liked carrots! Ginger and Taz, I hope you get a yummy bite of hamburger as a treat, or a delicious dog treat, on the Fourth of July. Please ask your mom to give you both some petting for me!

I don't believe I've ever met a dog before that liked carrots!

WHAT??

I'm not sure I've ever met a Dog that DIDN'T like carrots!

Or, at least 'developed a taste' for 'em.
Smokey needed the old "If you don't eat your carrot, I will!" lesson from Cinder -
after watching her steal his 'rejected carrots' a couple times, he quickly developed
a taste for them! Even BOWSER, rest his Fluffy Soul, always took his place in the Carrot Line.

OHH Congratulations!!! It's scary, but it's oh so fun and rewarding!!! Congrats!!

He could very well be a purebred chihuahua. My sister's girl is 15 pounds and she is pure bred (although from a byb). He doesn't look like he has anything else in him. He is cute!

[chocolatepuppy]

How nice to hear things are going well with Ginger and Taz!

[krazyaboutkatz]

I'm so glad that Ginger and Taz are doing so well together. It sounds like you picked the perfect companion for Ginger.

[shais_mom]

Does this make me the #1 single dog owner now?
Wow! Congratulations Joyce! I have to admit, I was shocked because you feel a lot like I do. I'm SO happy for you! Taz is an adorable, handsome boy! It's OK, Ginger, mommy will always love you to pieces!

nope!
there's always me!
And I'm sure I'll stay that way - Keegan doesn't like to share mommy, and other factors come in as well but we are happy.
but I'm THRILLLEDDDD for Ginger, Mom and Taz - whoo hoo- what a cutie and I'm sure you made the right decision. Kudos and HUGS to you!
looking forward to hearing more about Taz and Ginger.

I'm just seeing this, Joyce!!! I'm so excited for all of you!! Taz is adorable. Welcome to PT, Taz!! I love you!!! Congratulations!!! My girls are ecstatic too. Please give that gorgeous Ginger and that adorable Taz some kisses from us.

After reading the whole thread, I decided to comment more. Joyce, you always sound so much like me anyway but your emotions are right on with this. I know how you feel and what you're going through every day. I think Ginger will come around and grow to love her brother. You are such a great person for taking little Taz. I love this story. It is so much like mine and Delilah's.
I hate to sound stupid and forgive me if this has been covered but......Taz is a Chihuahua , right? How much does he weigh? He looks like Delilah's size.

[k9krazee]

Congratulations, Taz is ADORABLE!!

[jazzcat]

I'm just now seeing this, Congratulations!!!! Taz is a cutie. I've never had to introduce two dogs but I've had my share of cat/cat and cat/dog intros over the past 6 years and I know it can be a bit stressful but it sounds like things are going well. Ginger is a great dog so I'm sure she and Taz will end up great friends.

I'm so happy for you!!

Thought I would repeat D & D's question because I was wondering too.

I was trying to think back to when Maggie joined me & Smokey, but it seems
so long ago. Seems like she has always been here. I was concerned at
first also, but their personalities meshed perfectly from the start. It does
seem like Taz & Ginger will be, if not friends, great companions for each other.

[Taz_Zoee]

Awww, I'm so glad Ginger and Taz are getting along. They look very cute together on the couch.
Taz is so adorable. Now you've got two of the cutest dogs!!!
