My girls share pee pads. Missy (my first) is submissive, and when we got the new puppy Dora, she did kind of walk all over her. I had to encourage Missy to stick up for herself, and I had to step in occasionally when Dora was just being too much. I have zero experience with rescues though. I have a feeling that could be a whole new ballgame. Hopefully someone who has a rescue dog, or works with them, will see this thread and offer advice.
