I was thinking to let them near the puppy when he was weaned also. I do have an X pen set up in our family room as well but I wouldn't be able to put the puppy and Lola there because that room is too cold since it's a huge open area (closing off the vent) would not work. I think I may let our 2 yorkies walk around the xpen where Lola andher baby is more often so they get used to the baby .I just want Lola to get used to the idea of allowing the others to sniff the puppy and not want to attack! lol
Cookie(4yrs old) and Angel (1.5yrs old) only like to sniff and are curious they are not the type to want to fight ...
