I have a dog that I have had for abut 10 years that I got from the HS.  He is poodle, yorkie, schnauzer, and border collie mix.  Then about 6 years ago, I went there and got a kitten.  She is a bobtail calico.  It didn't take too long for the 2 of them to get to be buddies.  A month ago, I got a chorkie from one of my coworkers.  He is only about 9 mos old.  He and my dog get along great.  They will play and play until the older one gives him the ROWF, that he's had enough, and the puppy leaves him alone. 

My cat hid for days when I first got him, and still does not like him at all!  She chases him down and hisses at him.  She has never attacked him, just chases and hisses (she is declawed in front).  He is so little that I'm afraid he is going to jump off the bed or couch (or fall) and break a leg or something.

Any thoughts?

Thank you!  PattiAnn
