Hello Everybody,
First of all I'd like to thank everyone for the wonderful comments and
stories I received regarding the Sleeping not Dead experience I had, you
were all very helpful and supportive. Now I have another question....
I am looking into getting a puppy.....My ferrets have never been exposed
to any other kind of animal (dog,cat,etc.) I'm worried about how they
will react. I have three who are all females and between the ages of
1 and 2 1/2. They are all wonderful amongst themselves, only one is
completely fine with all people, including strangers. The youngest is
a biter, even to her Mom, however she will not bite her Dad (figures!).
The middle one is very timid and nervous with strangers. I don't know
if any of these personality traits would carry over to a new puppy, or
dog. I guess what I'm wondering is if anyone has introduced a puppy
into a house dominated by ferrets before and has had issues or not??
I really appreciate your input. Oh and the puppy I am hoping to get is a
American Staffordshire Terrier, they are a medium sized dog, about 30-60
lbs. The breed is known to be good with small animals.
Thanks,
Krista
