When I got Darla I introduced her by saying MINE in a loud tone. I put her down and repeated mine!!. I had no problems with the 7 others taking to her right away. Same thng with Spanky the following week. It is so much a pack thing and dogs do not like a new pack member.
Keeping them separate is good if you are unsure of being able to prevent mishaps.
They learn to get along eventually. |
