If your dog hasn't been around cats, I would keep them a way from the kittens.

It will just take time, your dog feels as though your new little kitten is taking all your time and affection up (even though you love them equally) you could perhaps hold the kitten gently to the dog to allow the dog to smell her and therefore realise that she is no threat to her. Also perhaps just make extra fuss if your dog and treats, just to reassure her you still love her!
I hope you get this sorted out, have fun and hugs with all your lovely animals xx

Careful, the dog can easily traumatize the kitten, just by it's sheer size & curiosity. Keep them separated until the kitten gets bigger, or get rid of the kitten

They way I done it was to introduce them a little at a time. A few minutes just to see how the dogs are going to react. Then go for longer times. In time they will get to know the cat and it should be fine.

try paying attention to both. if you pay too much attention to the dog it will get used to it and make the situation worse when you play with the cat.

i thnk it's hard now to make them familiar to each other..
i thnk they must have been together when they were smaller...
or maybe u must try some dog trainers :)
good luck
