I added Mikki to my family about 3 months ago. Rosie is not aggressive either but we found out that she CAN be! Mikki was 1 yr old and Rosie was 4 yr old. Since Rosie was here first, I always tend to her first. I feed her first, bath her first, pick her up first, etc. She is used to my undivided attention where Mikki was not. It seems to have worked for us. I will warn you that with two females I see "cat fights" between the two of them. I understand they do this until they figure out who is dominate. Ours has slowed down considerably but we still have them. I think in time they will pretty much stop. You may not have as big an issue since Bella is so little.
If I can answer any questions at all for you feel free to pm me! I asked lots when I first got Mikki!
Good luck and congrats to you!!!! |
This is how it has worked for me, anytime I added any new dog....and I always make sure everyone gets special alone time with me...even if it is for only a half hour or so....and I always try to not let my "first ones here" see me making over the others....and yes, cat fights will ensue!!! Hopefully, they will stop when rank is established....although, I have one that apparently keeps "talking trash", and everyone of the others HATE her and will jump her immediately, if given the chance!
