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 [Posted in FML issue 4036]
