How to Introduce Your Dog to a New Puppy
Bringing a new puppy into your family is an amazing feeling and having a proper introduction is crucial to ensure a smooth transition for both of your dogs. Prior to the introduction, there are a few things to keep in mind. Introduce them at a neutral place: Dogs are naturally territorial. Hence, it’s a good idea to introduce the older dog to the new puppy outside of your home. Take the older dog out for a walk and have both dogs meet each other on the street. You can also introduce them behind a fence where they are separate but can still properly greet each other.
