All I can tell you is when I brought Cooper home, Baxter ran from him and avoided him at all costs. He would jump up on the sofa, then the back of the sofa, because Cooper couldn't get up there. We got lots of dirty looks, while he still managed to look small and dejected at the same time.
I started putting both of them down to play in the kitchen. I would put the baby gate up and sit on the floor with them, but loved on Baxter more. It took maybe 2 weeks, but Baxter started playing with him instead of running from him. They are now best buds, and there is nothing cuter than to see them chase each other thru the house.
Just have patience and let it work itself out! |
