Two old people and one Oreo between them
Oreo meets Madeline.
Oreo has a new cousin, her name is Madeline. She was a Christmas gift for the family. Madeline has had all her shots now so today was their first meeting.
Charlie needed help with a ham radio antenna because the little old lady he lives with had a "hissy fit" about him getting on the roof. We all know that the main cause of injury in old men is that they think they are young men.
Suzy, Tim, and the boys all came over and Miss Madeline was with them. We decided it was time for Miss Mattie to meet cousin Oreo.
Madeline is only 7 pounds of happy hyper puppy and of course, our old man Oreo is 3 times her size.
There was no barking, growling, or aggressive behavior between the two. Oreo sniffed her all over which any proper lady would find offensive.
Oreo got so excited he lost bladder control in the kitchen. You could tell he was embarrassed so we took him outside to finish his business.
Suzy and I tried to get a picture of this momentous occasion. It was hardly a " Lady and the Tramp " spaghetti moment. Many thanks to photographer Oscar. Suzy and I found out how hard it is to get both dogs looking in the same direction at the same time. We laughed hysterically during the photoshoot.
It will take a while before they play together but it was a good first meeting. Madeline fell asleep cuddled by her mom in a nice warm blanket around the fire pit. Oreo found Poppa's lap and a warm blanket to snuggle in also.
Hopefully, this will be the start of a growing friendship.
