Introduce them on neutral grounds so no one is above anyone. This is a territorial thing. i read somewhere that the older dog needs to believe that the pack leader (you) will protect them, so you should take charge and slowly with full attention on them, let them get to know each other. And if the older growls calm them down and reassure them that its ok. And if the puppy is playing to ruff with the older, maybe give some time to the older. Also show them plenty of love so they don't feel replaced with the new puppy.
Good luck! |
