So I live with my brother and he came home tonight and said he is bringing home a basset hound. His friend's wife's boss is moving and can't take her two year old basset hound, Winchester, with her so she's giving him away for free to anyone who will give him a good home.
Will he be okay with Layla? She's a bigger yorkie, around 9-10 lbs. My brother is off from work for two weeks so he will be picking up the dog and taking him to my parents' house for Christmas. I will be going there with Layla in the middle of next week, so any contact they have with each other will be supervised all the time for at least a week.
And if he's trained to go outside and Layla is trained to use pee pads, will that change things? She is 3 years old but I'm gone for 10 hours a day for work so it's easier to keep her going on pads. Usually she sleeps through the day and doesn't go anyway. Do you think maybe the new dog will encourage her to go outside too?
I don't know much about basset hounds at all, so any info would be appreciated!
