Good. Keep working with her. It took Rascal (8 yr old male) a few weeks to really adjust to Trixie (now 6 mos). He was never agressive towards her, but did make sure he groweled when protecting his bone. They had this "bone ownership" struggle going on for awhile. It just gradually went away, as we rewarded Rascal with a great deal of affection when he played nice. He finally accepted the little pup in his life and they are best friends now.
I hope your situation goes the same way. Good luck! And keep watching that little diva!
