Tulip's here! I got to adopt her this past Saturday. It was a crazy day, full of classes not how I would do a first day with a new dog but we made it. She's pretty adaptable and low key. But a great deep WOOF of a bark which I love. Lots and lots of drool and hair but I'm okay with it having had Pyrs and loving Pyrs. It's all a part of the package. She only knows SIT. Which is helpful but we have a ways to go. She will be taught with force free positive training like my other dogs. She's a dream and has wanted to sleep with me from day 1. Mac sleeps with me so not sure how it would go but so far so good. We have Rules of The Bed that must be followed and if everyone does, it will work out fine. I can see the advantage of two dogs in the bed in the winter. Especially a 105 lb dog. She loves looking out the back door and barking at foot traffic on Pippin Rd. A couple WOOFs is okay. I discourage continual barking and reward the stopping of it. Her and Mac have been playin' "Wild Kingdom" (wrestling) all morning.
