I’m living with three sisters, and it isn’t always easy. Girls are a bit different from boys it seems, and then add the fact that I’m a puppy I do get some attitude from the girls. Each of my sisters behaves differently around me, and I have learned what they like and don’t like pretty quickly. I had sisters in my litter, but we were all too young to really know the difference between boys and girls.
Bailie is nine, making her a lot older than I am. She is very wise too. For some reason she isn’t a fan of puppies, not even puppies who don’t live at our house. I love to lick her beard, but she really dislikes that and Mom keeps telling me to stop it. Bailie puts up with me but also likes to keep her distance as you can see in the photo. A few times she has snapped or growled at me, usually when I try to get her treats or food, or if I am in her face too much. Overall, she is a very nice sister and I can learn a lot from her.
Madison is the fun police/rule enforcer and is six years old. She is the smallest of the four of us, but she wants to be the boss all the time. I go for walks with her a lot. Mom says Madison is a good walker with decent leash behavior that I can learn from. She gets really mad when I get my wild pants on with Olivia and she lets Olivia know she doesn’t like it. Why she is such a fun wrecker we don’t know, but she has always been that way, I hear. Maybe she doesn’t like being so small, but it is the size she has so she needs to deal with it.
Olivia and I are the wild kids. Mom said the two of us would be a fun pair and she is right. We hang out a lot, play with toys together, and really get our wild pants on in the evenings in the yard! Both of us are also into sports which is a lot of fun. I don’t get to walk with Olivia much because Mom says she is a bad influence right now. It’s alright because I have plenty of sisters I can walk with. My goal is to push Olivia and see if I can top some of her sports records. She says no way, but time will tell.
Sisters are fun, one just needs to know their likes and dislikes and things go well. I wonder how big I will get? Mom says I will be about the size of Olivia. I guess in about a year, we will know!

You are a smart boy, Nelson, and you have your sisters pretty much figured out already at your young age. Sisters are great, aren’t they!
Sisters are great, but they are also challenging because they are not all happy go lucky like I am.
wow sisters are something like brothers but different, right? we would love to get a sister, but it seems we will stay as a brotherhodd LOL
Girls are difficult and they don’t make a lot of sense, but Olivia is pretty easy going.
You are so intuitive for such a young boy.. I think you and Olivia are going to be great pals at least until you start beating her at the events.. maybe Madison has the Napolian complex for being so much smaller than everyone else. However she is a good sister to learn from. She is very knowledgeable. I guess time will tell if Bailie will stop growling at you. I think once you get older, your sisters will learn to love you and take care of you. You and Bert seem to get along very well.
Bailie just prefers to be more on her own and that is fine. Madison always wants to boss everyone around, even Bailie but they are all fine with me if I don’t get too irritating.
Oh, Nelson, you are so smart and beautifully handsome. We older sisters have to guide younger pups like you. I allowed my baby sister, Puffin, to pull on my ears, jowls, and furs when she was a fur baby, but I told her that she was not allowed to touch my tail. My mom still wonders how I did that, and I will never tell! I love you, Nelson! XOXO Sparkle
Bailie has told me some things and I definitely listen. Madison I know is bossy, so I try to do what I think she wants me to do.
Nelson, you have a great group of sisters – and you have your cat bro Bert! Each has something to teach you.
I’m tired every night from learning stuff all day long!
You are learning fast
I have to learn to keep up with everyone around here.
Nelson what a smart pup…You have already learned to co=exist with the Gals and thankfully each is teaching you their secrets.
I know girls of all species can be drama queens and it does take patience.
Very soon we need to hear from them what YOU are teaching them. BOL BOL BOL.
Hugs Cecilia
I don’t think I am teaching them anything, they wouldn’t listen even if I tried, LOL!
You’re most wise, Nelson. You have to get along and you’re doing it right. It makes life so much sweeter.
Have a woof woof Thankful Thursday. Scritches all around and my best to your smart mom. β₯
Yes, if I don’t get along with them, it would not be fun at all.
I think in a year you will be Olivia’s size give or take an inch. You are a very smart boy and learn quickly. Keep up the good work! You are also STILL extremely handsome, Nelson – just don’t let it go to your head! You and Olivia can challenge each other to run faster and sniff smarter. I think you are the best brother Olivia could ever have!
Mom says we are perfect pals for each other. We almost killed ourselves racing around the other night. I’m faster and stronger now and we play hard.
No matter the size or age I do know they love you sweet Nelson. Thanks for joining our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!
I know in a pinch they would save my furry behind and that is good to know.
Wowzers! Your sisters are totally unique…just like you! You look like the kind of guy who will get along well with all of them! Purrs Marv
Mom says they are all very different but yet the same. I don’t get it, but whatever. Mom is a girl too!
you are one smart puppy Nelson! You have studied your sisters quite well and are intelligent enough to know you can learn from all of them! I love how close you are to Olivia!
It makes Mom happy that Olivia and I are good pals. I think we have a lot in common.
You and Olivia are a dynamic duo, i’m sure. Give Madison a break, too, it’s not easy being a middle child.
Madison is being rather grumpy these days and she doesn’t like it when we play.
You’ve got such an interesting harem, young Nelson. Enjoy those girls any way they’ll let you!
I deal with them all separately since they are all so different in their attitudes about me.
