| Mine did that too! Now they love each other! You have to give them time and supervise supervise supervise! It will take at least 2 weeks. Always give your first dog the attention because it will get jealous and possibly take it on the new pup. Good luck! |

| you could put a babygate up and put them in seprate rooms where there can smell each other , but not get to each other --gives them time to adjust, without hurting each other. ive done this and it helped them adjust---they need time, cuz your first baby is feeling jealous.

| mine hated each other at the start too. give them time... introduce them slowly... keep them apart, give them lots of ALONE time, and only let them be together a little bit each day, extending that time each day! Mine LOVE each other but it did take a few months to get there.

| We experienced the same thing when we got Bristol. Gracie was 6 months at the time. It gets better. Supervise and give Gabby lots of love so she doesn't feel left out. |

| Well, they say you're supposed to introduce them to each other on neutral ground. We're already past that now. So, you are now a referee! Seriously, I'm sure in time it will work out and they'll be best friends.

| Many years ago...I introduced my dog to a new one coming in...it was scary at first. I was calling dog people in a panic. It turned out well after a short time and they became the best of friends. When they both adjusted, it was fun watching them interact and play together.
