Introducing a new pup to my pup.... help
We have been offered my pups Brother of the same age [5mths] as he needs to be rehomed due to the family being at work all day etc.
My question is - how is the best way to introduce my pup to the new one ? altho they were littermates its not like they will remember is it ?
when we bring the new one home - do we introduce them outside etc ?
thx

anychance you can take diesel to a park or something and then your brother or someone brings the other pup .. that way you can have them meet and bond in surroundings that neither are all too familiar with etc.
Get them together to meet and aslong as they get along take it from there, play with them both, praise them both and then if they get on you can walk them home together.
When entering your house you go first, then diesel then the new pup .. they should be fine id of thought been only months old etc.
They DO and WILL play rough lol just keep your eye on body language and if they get too excited just calm them down before it escalates etc.
When the new pup wonders of and you are left with diesel or if diesel wonders of and left with the new pup, dont be overly fussy than you usually would or the pup will think, i get more attention when the other is not around!
Goodluck hope all goes well! =)

Can't really add much here either except not to leave them alone without seperating them for awhile.
