a new addition!! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

nhilarious · 04-24-2006, 04:34 AM

Hello all!

I have a 14 month old male named Hershey. Well, as yall can imagine, he is spoiled rotten and has had our undying and undivided attention for a whole year. we hate leaving him home alone because he looks so sad in the window so we have finally gotten a new addition: her name is Coco and we just introduced them yesterday.

My dilemma is, Hershey the love of my life seems SOOO mad at me! he wouldn't even let me hold him yesterday! You see, when i come home in the driveway, he's always perched on the couch. when i get out of the car and he sees its me, you see his ears go back and he starts doing a little crazy dance and excited squeeky noises and races to the door and well cover me in his kisses the second i sit down!!

well, he did this just like any other time. he raced to the door to start dancing for me BUT when he saw i was holding Coco, he looked shocked and even sad and ran away!!

what am i supposed to do?? any advice? please help me!

Welcome to YorkieTalk .

Your little one only need time to adjust to the new one .

He just needs to adjust to the new addition. If your praising the puppy and he is right there, make a fuss over him too so he doesn't feel left out. It's just an adjusting stage. They will be the best of friends in a few months. Good Luck!!!!!

Welcome to YT!!!!
Hershey has been the only furbaby in the house,
so yea he's upset, but soon he will learn that you brought
Coco hope to be his friend. You need to give both lots of
attention, I'm sure in no time they will become best friends.
Good Luck to you

I LOVE the names of your furbabies!! I think it just takes time for them to adjust...it is just like bringing a real baby home and your toddler getting jealous! Just make sure you give Hershey as much attention as you give Coco!

Don't worry, he'll get adjusted in no time . . . wouldn't you feel the same way and be jealous knowing you aren't going to be the one and only anymore

and

on your new addition . . .make sure you post pictures of both of them for all of us to enjoy!

He will adjust. Just give him a little extra alone time with you.

Hi and welcome to YT

Congrats on your new addition... would love to see pics

Hershey needs time to adjust and accept the baby, it takes a while, but soon they will be best friends!!

Good luck!

thank you all sooo much! for all the welcomes and all the advice. I honestly feel so much better.

I've posted some pictures of my little Hershey throughout the year I've had him. I'll post pictures of Coco (and hopefully of Coco AND Hershey!) as soon as I can! Have a good day everyone!
