Old and young

November 30, 2008 by Jen

Jemma

Recently my sister’s dog had a short stay at our house. She’s not even one year old yet and our Monty is an old girl. I knew it would be an interesting time. Sure enough, when Jemma arrived, Monty barked at her for the first hour.

Barking

Jemma being the young and energetic one wanted to play with Monty but Monty’s a bit too old and grumpy for that now. She just wants to lie down and/or follow her humans around, not be annoyed by the young pup.

There were a few growls, but overall they managed with each other. Apparently Jemma slept for the whole day after my sister picked her up and I’ll bet Monty did too.

    Your Monty sounds a lot like our Milli. She is 14 y.o now and likes a low key life!

    My Sheikh loves it when his young friend, Milo comes to stay, though he’s not as old as Monty so tolerates the young one better.

    He always sleeps well when his friend has gone, too!

    Simply adorable ! ha.. it’s good to have some young pups around from time to time. So how many hours did Monty sleep eventually?

    Ching Ya, I’m not sure how much Monty slept that day as I was at work, but she’s an old girl and needs her rest, so I’m sure she slept a long time.
