However as time went on Hendra starting actively seeking out my attention because since she was tired of pouting. And because I'm always near the puppy she had to get over her jealousy, suck it up like the big girl she is and walk near Jo-jo. Then after a few days of that Josephine was old enough to go on walks with Hendra and they bonded playing on a field near my house. They get along great now and I really believe it was the walks were they were forced to be near each other.
I'm not sure if it'll work for you, but it certainly worked for me. ^^

Thanks for your encouragement, Kelsey! I think, you're right. It just takes a little time for the two of them to bond. Walking them together is a great idea!
I've been throwing the frisbee all morning for Walker and the little one is trying so hard to keep up with him. Now he's out for the count...too cute!
