How long has it been since the puppy arrived?
Jazzie is 9 years old and our two new pups can get on her nerves but Jazzie just goes to higher ground when she doesn't want to be bothered. We shower Jazzie with more attention than normal, trying to reassure her she is the QUEEN BEE. Jazzie has been good and tolerant with the new kids and would even play with them but she is older and needs "alone time" and definitely needs to be reassured of her place.
Make sure your older baby gets the first hello, food, petting, grooming, lap and help her be the alpha female. She will come around and learn to enjoy eachother. |
