After we had to say goodbye to Kira
we
where worried how Ida would feel about being the only dog in our home,
but she took the situation very well and became more calm and
confident being the alpha female in our house. But a year
after we lost Kira, we decided that it would be better
for Ida if we got a second dog. We could see when we visited one
of our good friends who has 2 male dogs, that Ida really enjoyed
playing and interacting with them. We had known for a while that IF we
were to get another dog, we would chose a shelter dog and probably one
from Spain, since there are so many unwanted dogs ending up at shelters
and most of them have had a really bad start in life:-(
On September 30th we went to the airport and collected Pieter, our wonderful new addition to our
family:-) He has been here for a week and they are already very good
friends. They eat standing beside each other in the kitchen, they sleep
beside each other in our bedroom (unless Pieter sneaks up into the bed
which is actually forbidden area for the dogs!:-), they play in our
yard and they generally get along very well. If one of them says "stop"
to the other, they back of and still get along afterwards.
