Hi fellow dog lovers! My name is Kim. I have a 7yr old Border Collie/Aussie mix. His name is Balto. I also have a cute little cat named Buttons. Recently we heard about a 5 yr old Beagle named Max who desperately needs a new home. Being the dog lovers that my husband and I are....we, of course, want to to help this dog. He is severely overweight and his current person does not think she can put in the time/effort needed for Max to go on a diet and exercise program. She will put Max to sleep if no one will take him. Well.....I cannot let someone put a dog down just because he is obese! YIKES.... My problem is that my current dog is not particularly good around other dogs. I know there is going to be a huge adjustment period. I will be home all summer to help these two dogs become buddies (I hope). Any suggestions??

I am glad to hear you love your new Bichon. My mother/father-in-law had 7 new pups born May 1. We are getting one when they are old enough to leave mom. I'd love to hear about little Crystal. I am pre-op with surgery date August 16, 2004. Jacque

My name is Kris and I am in Colorado and I have 6 lab puppies that are 3 weeks old. The parents are my best friends (other then hubby) I know that in about 6-7 weeks I will have to sell them, does any one have any ideas to make this process easier? Thanks, Kris
