Hi all!
We are first time Newfie owners (after having a German Shepherd for 8 years) and LOVE our Claire Bear. We are in process of adding a 2nd newfie to our home. Claire is 7 months old and the new pup is 13-weeks old, both from the same breeder.
We have a 6-year old daughter and will be foster parenting soon (to 1 child, age 4-6).
My question is this... how do we best introduce our new pup to our current pup and does anyone have experience owning 2 Newfs at the same time? I am a little concerned that we are going to be in over our heads... We know that the cost will be extremely high for vet bills and food cost, etc... I am more concerned that the girls (Newfs) will not get along?
Any suggestions for helping introduce them the best way? Tips for raising 2 Newfs??
Thanks!
