Running with the Big Boys: A Pup-date


So how did three older dogs respond to the introduction of a young upstart? Total indifference really.
That's okay, the enthusiasm was mutual. Mator greeted his new friends with a deep, throat rumbling growl that was a warning for them to keep their distance.

The dust has settled somewhat now and Mator has started to run with the big boys. 






Actually, I think Mator has begun to feel like he is the one in charge.

    To cudownie, że duże psy bawią się przyjacielsko z małym. Pozdrawiam
    It's wonderful that big, beautiful dogs playing with a little friendly. Yours

    Hey Jennifer,
    It's always exiting if the other dogs accept the new one. I am pleased to read that everything is going well with your new dog. It's gorgeous.
    Have a nice evening.

    Thanks for your comments everyone. Mator is 5 months old. He was a Christmas gift to my daughter-in law from her mother, so I am sorry, but I do not know where she got him. He is a corgi/schnauzer mix.

    Oh, he is just too adorable! I loved seeing these delightful action shots of him with his Big Brothers. They, of course, are beautiful...oops, Boys! HANDSOME! Sorry :)

    He looks like he is holding his own with the boys. Looks like he has the same coloring they do but not as silky. I remember the year my dog opened several presents under the tree (he was not a pup when he did this).

    All three dogs are beautiful and so well groomed. Mator was growling, I expect, cause he was scared...so pleased to know he is one of the boys now.

    Mator is terribly cute, and I am glad things are working out. When we introduced our new one to the other two, it was one quick sniff then the cold shoulder. Until she exhibited the habit of wanting to sit on them for some strange reason.

    What a cute pup!! Terriers have take-charge personalities so if your guys don't watch it, he'll be issuing orders!
