I am sure the cats and him will come around in due time.
They really do seem to adjust with time and patience.
Look at that FACE
Best of Luck.

The SCD staff and Arda do a amazing job and
love every minute of it. Wonderful wonderful
Dobes there. I am not on staff, but I sure love SCD
and everything they do and stand for.
You know thru the years I have noticed that horse people
and Dobe people seem to go together. Maybe I am wrong
it just seems like that is what I have noticed. Maybe it's
because you always try to be "one step ahead of the horse
in thinking" and we try to be "one step ahead of the Dobe
in thinking"............NOT.........."too smart"

Ben is a really mellow dude!,,,well as you can see Bens ready for bed! Lights Out everyone!I am just so happy for Ben and you too.

Joaquin and I are on staff and we try to go to Arda's every two or three weeks. We live in Saginaw, and we have three SCD dogs- Buddy is almost 10, Alley is about 7, and Bailey will be 4 in April. Bud is a boy, Alley & Bailey are girls. Here is a link to our adoption of Al & Bud with a picture of us. http://www.secondcha...n...65&hl=lefty

I am Lori, the Heavy Metal music lover. Jackie & I answered a lot of the questions you brought with you, on your adoption day. I am sure once Ben and your cats have time to acclimate, they will get along just as well as they did with your sweet DixieDog.
I have to share a horse/Dobe story with you. My husband & I used to have a Dobe, named Ralph, and a horse, named Sunny. They were best buds. We would take Ralph out in the field to see Sunny, and Sunny would groom him as if he were her baby. Ralph LOVED it. Sometimes we would take a slice of bread out, and Sunny & Ralph would wait patiently while we tore it into small pieces, and feed it to them, one piece at a time. Those are some really nice memories, we miss them both very much.
As far as answering a pm, just click the 'reply' button at the bottom of the screen, and it will allow you to write back.
Thanks for the pictures, and stories, of Ben and his new life.

Hearing this really warms my heart. I was so happy to see Ben get a great home, and to hear how it is all working out so well just makes my day.update with BEN,,,Big Ben is awesome! such a kind gentle, loving friend! and has bonded with me and never leaves my side when I'm home! He shares his love with Michelle too! he's very happy here with us and loves his new home...
Tim, we haven't met, I just hang around the board occasionally, and Cheri is my real name. I've owned Dobes for the past 25-plus years and I currently have two. One is a rescue from another organization. It is my hope that someday I will be able to add a rescue from SCD to my life.
As far as Ben's reaction to the horses, consider yourself lucky! I have a horse at my home, and one of my dogs has to be watched closely if the horse is near the fence or she will try to chase her and scare her -- from the other side of the fence, of course. I would never trust her in the same enclosure with the horse. The other dog will walk up to the fence and stand near the horse if she's close, but he really pays her no attention.
Currently part of my treasured family and helping to make life fun and busy:
Hunter, the chocolate Labradeagle (or Beaglador)
Terra, the tall, gorgeous red Doberwoman
Waiting at the Bridge and forever in my heart...... Igor, Max, Savanna, Logan, and Tasha

We've never met... I'm from Mt. Pleasant. I've helped a few homeless dobes get to 2nd Chance, including one (Phoebe) who almost drove Arda nuts... lol
I enjoy this discussion board because of the kind people and our mutual love for the doberman breed. I have two female dobes. Majik is almost nine.
Little Karma is about 16 months old. She has a disability, but manages just fine.
About the cats... you're absolutely right... once the cats get used to Ben and stop running from him everything will fall into place.
Ben looks like he has it made.
