But anyway, we pick up the little puppy on Monday, bring it home, it\u2019s 13 weeks, Abbey is about a year and two months old. And so we were dreading, &#8216;Okay, what\u2019s going to happen we put these two together?\u2019 We knew what was going to happen when we put the cat Punkin together with Abbey, but we were fretting about it so what we decided to do, we put the little puppy upstairs, brought Abbey home at five o\u2019clock and put her in the library where the puppy had been so she could smell it. <\/p>\n<p>She knew something was up. She was all over Kathryn when she got home, all excited to see Kathryn, got in the library, &#8216;Uh-oh.\u2019 She started running around sniffing everything, picked up some of the puppy\u2019s toys, wandering all over, jumping on the couch, looking behind doors, &#8216;Where is this new scent?\u2019 So we\u2019re saying, &#8216;Oh no, how are we gonna introduce \u2019em?\u2019 So I said, &#8216;Let\u2019s do it outside.\u2019 I put a leash on Abbey, took her outside. Kathryn went up and got the puppy, took him outside, and at first it was, &#8216;Arf, arf, arf, arf,\u2019 barking at each other and trying to lunge at each other. After five minutes they\u2019re playing, they\u2019re running around. It\u2019s the funniest thing. (laughing) I never thought I\u2019d have one dog, much less two, and they\u2019re like fast buddies after five minutes. Even Punkin came down to the kitchen this morning. The puppy is off being shown to family members today, so it\u2019s just Abbey and me in the family room for breakfast and Punkin comes walking in and the dog looks at Punkin and Punkin looks at the dog. You know, Punkin thinks the dog\u2019s stupid, is crazy, you can just tell this. <\/p>\n<p>Punkin for the first time started eating the dog\u2019s food and drinking the dog\u2019s water, and the dog just sat there and looked at it. I said, &#8216;Abbey, you sit tight.\u2019 And Punkin went through the motions, and it was a peaceful coexistence. I mean it was fascinating. These two little puppies &#8212; well, one\u2019s not a puppy anymore, but they\u2019re like best buds. (interruption) Yeah, they\u2019re Old English Sheepdogs, and we got &#8212; (interruption) no, it\u2019s not hot inside the estate, H.R., for sheepdogs, and they love going outside. No, no, no. Everything\u2019s fine. Abbey\u2019s at Head Start (laughing) is the way to look at this. (interruption) They do have breakfast. Oh yeah, she gets government &#8212; well, it\u2019s not government paying for it, it\u2019s private sector Head Start. I don\u2019t think they feed \u2019em that much because whenever we bring \u2019em home they make a beeline for the water and food bowls. But that\u2019s good, you know, that\u2019s good because they have a lot of dogs there, don\u2019t have to worry about taking them all out to do their business. It was great to watch this. And they were just all over each other all night. The little one is feisty, jumping at Abbey and Abbey, you know, barking back at it and chasing each other around the house. It was unbelievable. It just went flawless. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Yes, we put the dogs together last night. Folks, this was the funniest thing.
