Oddly, my B does worse when off her turf when meeting new dogs, and is much better meeting them at home. I have to say that the only way my B was okay with a new dog was if the new dog was crated and she got to sniff and check out the new dog without it jumping all over her. Once I knew my B was okay with the new dog, I put both dogs on leashes in case one became aggressive, and let them out together in one room.
New puppy

Packed up the kids and hubby in the car on the weekend for the three hour round trip to the breeder. We picked out a beautiful baby boy. he's just turned four weeks old. So we're gonna wait a fortnight then go and see him, then two weeks after that, the breeder we'll bring him to us. He's black/white. Little white ankle socks and a half white collar. I think he likes us too. He was giving me loads of little baby kisses. Any suggestions for a name. For us girls r a lot easier than boys and everything i like, Scott screws up his nose.(Typical male. And i'm getting another one??????).I was thinking something maybe egyptian or african, just not sure!

Here's a website that has Egyptian names-
http://www.20000-names.com/male_egyptian_names.htmYou might also try the AKC and see names from some of the champions that might give you ideas.
Some time back there was also a discussion of what forum folks have named their pups - you could search that for ideas.
Each time I've gotten a new dog, I've developed all kinds of lists of names that I thought would be good but in the end the dog has always "chosen" the name for himself - invariabley something happened that would make the choice for me.

Did you get any pictures of the baby during your visit???

I would suggest waiting until you get the little guy. Indi didn't have a name for abut 2 days. We had all these names in mind and none of them fit. Thats my two cents anyway (oh ya and because we did that I have a cool costume for him on haloween but I don't think I am going to get any cooperation on his end)
