Introducing Samson and Delilah

Post by lgobo »

Hello all:

My name is Lena. I'm from the U.S. and the mum to two wonderful mini Schnauzers, Samson and Delilah...both still puppies.

Delilah was our first. She's nervous and a little neurotic. We've had her since 8 weeks, and not sure how her fear aggression towards other dogs began. We've been taking her to doggy daycare to help socialize her. She's now 8 months old.

About 1 month ago, my husband thought that maybe a second puppy would be good for Delilah, so we rescued Samson, a 4.5 months old pup. He's the most gentle, sweet puppy we've ever met. He's great with dogs but was initially nervous around people...which has fortunately changed after a few short weeks with us. He is now the biggest attention hog...and seeks affection from everyone he meets...with the exception of toddlers which scare him. He's now almost 6 months old.

And my husband's hunch proved to be very good....as the staff from Doggy daycare confirmed that Delilah is doing much better with Samson. She's more confident, and he looks out for his sister while there. How cute!

Well here are my cuties.

Thank you - we love our little fur babies.

And I can't take credit for the nice pics. We actually take them to my brother - who is a great amateur photographer, but should probably consider becoming a professional pet photographer :)

Thank you everyone. Samson is a wonderful addition. But lately it appears she's influencing him a bit too much and not the other way around. Uh oh :o
