I had a 5 yr old (maltese) and brought home a 5 mos old puppy. I know you said that your new little girl is 2 yrs old. I would gate or crate train her. Not give her full run of the house. close off as many rooms as you can for now. watch her like a hawk. even if you have to leash her to you so you can get things done ( I tried that once or twice)
as for the 2 bonding, it will happen. My girls, don't play all that well, but they do go for walks next to each other, ride well in the car in their carseat together and eat and sleep next to each other well.
Give it time you are all in transition. |
