I hope that this works... I always hate to see those poor souls that are in the shelters for so long -- what a waste of their short lives! PLEASE try him and let us know if it works out!

Excellent that they have a trainer that can give you some good advice on introductions. Read a lot and be prepared to spend some time and effort. But in the long run, it's almost always a good thing to add another dog to the household. (Having said that, we are only a ONE dog household right now -- we rent, and went with a cat instead of second dog due to space). Some day, there will be more than one! (don't tell my current dog that... she thinks she is the ONE AND ONLY in our world!)
