'bear' => 'Brown',

'horse' => 'Mustang',

);

$result = array_slice($array, 0, 2, true) +

array("tiger" => "Bengal") +

array_slice($array, 2, count($array) - 1, true) ;

echo '<pre>',print_r($result),'</pre>';

Results shown below

Array

[cat] => Tabby

[dog] => Jack Rusell

[tiger] => Bengal

[bear] => Brown
