Smokie our 11 yr. old Wiem has a lot of problems, basicly he is getting old. Roxie our young female goes nuts when we take Smokie to the vet, so we thought we would get Roxie a friend to help her get by if Smokie eventually passes away. This is Savannah, she is 7 wks. old and already a charecter. More later when we find out how she gets along with the others.
Day 3...Older dogs still don't like her, bitting everything including me (teething), does not like to be confined.
Day 5... Roxie seemed to giver her some looks and sniffs but thats all. Still a ball of energy disguised as a puppy.
Day 14...Smokie still resist the little monster...Roxie plays a lot with her. Once in a while she acts like she is learning to tell us when she wants out but we have to watch her closely still. Cute when she is tired, a terror when she is awake.
Day 17 Took her to the vet for shots. Did very well, she weighs 1lmost 14 lbs now. Savannah weighed 8 lbs when we brought her home. Smokie still does not like her but may be accepting her a little, I hope so.
Day 25 Smokie has some serious medical problems and this may be why he does not take to her. He has declined in health rapidly lately. We hope he will be OK. The Vet has seen him several times and has not figured out what is wrong. Roxy continues to play with her and seems not to mind her SHARP teeth, I do however.
Day28 Smokie has undergone test by the vet (we thought he was a gonner for sure) and has been diagnosed with a liver problem and diabetis. The liver problem may be caused by his diabetis and may clear up we hope. He gets two shots a day for the rest of his life. Smokie is more tolerant of the new little Piranah but still is a grumpy old man to her. Smokie has been seen wagging his tail while sniffing her so there is hope they will get along. .
