good point, the thing is that we know hwo much happier she is when she is an only dog, she grew up not sharing attention with any other dogs, and only learned about other dogs from our own, at 8 years old, she may have this idea that all dogs are as rambuctious as ours lol the only others she has met are dakota and sparky, who are even more rambuctious then mine. we will have to see how it goes, if someone does have a layed back dog that shadow does not mind, that would be alright too.
