Default Puppy with older dog

Even a 7 month old puppy can be very high energy - way too much for a new older dog to deal with right away. Give them each space - let the new dog settle down - maybe even in another room. Poor girl is probably very overwhelmed. Her snapping at the puppy is normal - it's warning him to leave her alone. She probably won't hurt him - a 7 month old pup should be able to take care of himself and to learn what she will tolerate. I bet in a week you will have two dogs that will like each other a lot!
