This is one of the new roomies. Say hello to Sierra. Sierra is a 12-year-old yellow lab belonging a very good friend who is now a roomie as well. Times and friendships and finances being what they are, the stars aligned and I am happy to say, two-months-later, that the whole thing has worked out beautifully.
With Sierra being a 12-year-old yellow lab, the Beeze was thrown into serious confusion for a couple of days (his girlfriend is a 5-year-old yellow lab). But everyone has established their territories (or in this case - lack thereof) and settled down.
Both dawgs are overly affectionate but Sierra is definitely getting seniority treatment. I wouldn't quite call it alpha-dawg status but she pretty much eats out of any bowl she wants and sleeps where she wants and the Beeze spends a good part of his day showering her with licks.
i think it's not so much and alpha-dawg deal as a respect-your-elders deal.
Good to know we have raised at least one child who respects his elders . . . .
