How do I get my dog to except the new puppy?

Question

I have a pomeranian who just leaves the room when the new chihauhau comes in! help!

Answer 1

Give them time. Always put them together under close supervision until the Pom accepts the Chi. It might take 2 weeks or so, but they'll become the best of friends before you know it.

Answer 2

You can't force the dogs to like each other. That will just make the older dog more mad. You need to give them a few weeks to get used to each other and then start doing stuff with the both of them together. You also need to give your older dog just as much love as the puppy. He feels threatened that this puppy is going to steal his home. You need to let him know that you still love him, but you also cannot neglect the puppy.

Answer 3

Well you have to make them BOND. Like when u walk them take them at the same time. Put there food bowls next to each other as well as their beds. And if theres a park around bring them there.!!!!!!!! Hope It Helps

Answer 4

Answer 5

Let them be alone for about 5 min. and then see how they do w/out you, {thats how you will know if they will get along while you r out of the house.} Then spend an = amount of time with both of them, NEVER leaving 1 out.
