Ian Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 Sounds like things got quite extreme so it may be that it's for the best but I'm sorry to hear it hasn't worked out as you hoped. Is Jack going to be an only dog now or are you still hoping to find one he will accept? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzeanna Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 Maybe it's just you who thinks Jack needs a friend, and Jack is quite happy to be the one and only dog in the house? Sorry it didn't work out though, she looks a lovely little girl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pendlewitch Posted September 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 I think it would be best for Jack to be an only dog, I could not go through another heartbreaking situation as with Flossie. He will meet his friends on walks but won't be bringing them home for coffee and dog biscuits! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yantan Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 Archie copes very well with being an only dog with lots of friends he gets to go walking with regularly. I wouldn't dare try to introduce another dog here because he just doesn't like other dogs in his house or touching his stuff. He's got worse since we lost George, who was here first so accepted by Archie as a beloved big brother. At least we could have the occasional dog friend here and they were tolerated but these days he even turns on his besties if we attempt to bring them in. I am sure Jack will settle happily if he gets company on walks but gets you and his house to himself just like The Archibald Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pendlewitch Posted September 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 Yantan that's exactly the situation! It does make me feel better to know another dog reacts the same way as Jack, I did sort of think I'd failed him in some way. He's been very anxious and stressy recently but is beginning to come round now and is actually playing with his tennis ball again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
