So my roommates wanted a dog of their own, so after we all talked about it, we searched ads for dogs and found a 1 year old german shepherd mix. We had to be specific because of a few things in our house. My roommates have a 2 month old, so the dog has to be good with kids. Noba is hit and miss on which dogs he likes, so no males. The dog we found sounded perfect. She was trained in basic commands, good with kids, dogs and cats and already fixed and UTD on her shots. So we went and picked up the dog, poor man that was giving her away was in tears (going through a bad divorce and unable to continue Mischa's care). Mischa is the "puppy", all 90 lbs of her... she is huge...
Anyway, unfortunately, I don't know if it's cause she is a puppy or what, but Noba and her are NOT getting along. Well let me restate that, Noba is not getting along with her at all. He constantly walks around her growling, won't let me or my husband anywhere near her... they've gottten into a few squabbles over dumb stuff, but Noba is clearly the aggressor. And the puppy is just too hyper around the baby for my roommates sanity to stay intact. So the puppy has to go back to the original owner this weekend. Hopefully he can find her a good home. And the search will continue for the perfect dog for my roommates and Noba, apparently...
UPDATED: So I just talked to my husband (I'm at work), and he told me that Mischa and Noba have been playing together all day... hmmm....
We talked and decided to give her through the weekend to see how they really do. I guess the real test will be when I get home. Noba has not been letting me get near Mischa, he sees me as HIS hooman... so I guess we'll see, hopefully it doesn't come to ME moving out for the next few months....
