She is beautiful so the name fits perfectly. I am sure Bonnie will get along fine with Bella, we have two bitches (Maggie and Bella!) and once Maggie realised that Bella was staying she decided that she may as well lump it! Maggie didn't really have a lot to do with Bella initially and when we started doing proper walks together, Maggie made it her job to show Bella the deepest, fastest rivers and the highest, steepest cliffs I think in the hope she may have an unfortunate accident
Nearly 3 years on and they do love each other

Hi Jackie
Great to hear about Maggie having to lump it as it seems like Bonnie is acting the same.
Last night and first thing this morning Bonnie had the dejected look of 'when is it going back!'
When working on the computer this morning turned round to find Bonnie laying in her basket with Bella sitting in it as well. Soon as Bonnie realised she had been seen she got out of the basket and looked dejected again.
Bonnie has growled at Bella when she pushes her luck as any mother would to her boisterous pups, but if Bonnie could not cope with Bella she would be sitting on the sofa out of Bellas reach or upstairs.
As Bonnie has a thing about balls but is not possessive about what we are doing is playing with Bonnie in which Bella then joins in, amusing that Bonnie is frightened to take the ball off Bella if she get hold of it, but will drop it in front of her as if to say 'here you go'.
Regards
Dave, Sara, Bonnie & Bella.
