 Problems with our Yorkie and new s**tzu
Hello all. We have a 4 year old Yorkie named Brittany and just got a new male s**tzu puppy. When they first interacted, Brittany snapped at the s**tzu and wants nothing to do with him. We had a Lhasa Apso that we got 2 years ago but had to put it down recently because of kidney failure...it had health problems from day one as a result of being bred too quickly. That was tough to take and we've since done our home work on breeders.
Anyway, when we got the Lhasa Apso, Brittany had fun with her when she was still a puppy. As the Lhasa got older, they didn't play much anymore but at least tolerated one another. Our thought was that Brittany would like the s**tzu in its puppy years at least. This is not the case however and we're not sure what to do. The s**tzu puppy is an 8 week year old male. Our one thought is that maybe since the puppy hasn't been neutered yet, Brittany doesn't trust him, even though Brittany is neutered herself.
Any info would be appreciated as we're at a loss. Hope it all made sense. Thanks! |
