Two Way
What is the best way to introduce an older puppy to two adult dogs?
I will be getting a show dog in July. He is intact, 10 months old. I already have two dogs. One is a Corgi, he’s curious about other dogs and shows no signs of aggression. My oldest dog is a Bernese, she is protective of her home and is very alpha. (she’s only Alpha over other dogs, she knows that her ‘human pack members’ are alpha over her.)
I was thinking it would be best to introduce them in the large grassy area down the block, NOT in our dogs ‘territory’, once they get to know each other, I will walk them all home side by side so they can establish that they are a pack, and also wear them out a bit to decrease the risk of a spar breaking out. Then bring them all into the house, Bernese first, then my Corgi, and *then* the new ‘pack member’.
As far as dog psychology goes, would this work out? If not, please explain why it would not and perhaps explain a better way to do it. Thank you.
Congratulations you have done your homework and this warrants an A+++++++++. That is exactly how your introducea new pack member.
