Introducing a New Puppy into a Household with Other Dogs

Post by: The Quirky Dog in all
On this episode, Scott and Jess talk about the steps to take when you bring a new puppy into your household that already has other dogs. They discuss ways to avoid problems and smooth the transition of your puppy into your home. 

Topics discussed include:

  • Dog tip of the day
  • Be an advocate for the older dogs in your household
  • Supervise playtime and potty time
  • You need to prepare for bringing your puppy home
  • Limit access to the environment
  • If your older dog has issues, you need to anticipate how the puppy will affect those
  • Don’t just hope for the best
  • The energy levels of an older dog and puppy are very different
  • Be conscious of your puppy eating snow, since it is like drinking water
  • If your puppy is a rescue, it may have been misrepresented
  • You need to do an assessment of the dog yourself
  • The general timeframe for a puppy is 8 weeks to 6 months old
  • Containment setups make a lot of sense when the dog first comes home
