GREAT PICTURE!! I think they will work out just fine since the puppy will be growing up with the kitties. I have relatives who brought a GSD puppy home to two cats and there was some initial chasing but they all have managed to settle in. I have some cute pictures of Bella meeting Trevor. She was 5 lbs. at the time and he was 19 lbs. Now the tables have turned and she is 40 lbs. and he is still 19 lbs. but they are friends of a sort. At least they don't bother each other.
