BEHAVIOUR HANDOUT
Introducing a New Dog to Your Existing Dogs
Overview
One of the most difficult parts of bringing home a new puppy or dog is introducing them to your existing pets in your household.
Why this is important:
It's easier to go slowly and carefully than correct problems after fights or issues occur
Assess your own dog and their feelings about accepting a new housemate when making an introduction plan
Give your existing dog lots of opportunity to have space and time away from their new puppy or dog friend
