That short video gave me much more confidence to introduce our old man to a young pup. Thank you so much!

My border terrier puppy jumped on another dog walker once ,his adult dog told her off by squishing her in the dirt she was a lot more respectful to people with dogs after that, she had no injury just her pride. Great video, don’t think I will subject my senior to another puppy let her retire gracefully. Thankyou

Just started watching recently, I love to see this channel is growing. I'll be getting a dog soon, so glad I found such a solid training philosophy.

i wish i’d seen this before we got the puppy. Thanks so much for this advice. I started to figure it out on my own. The rest of my family needs to see this.

Aww, sorry to hear about Bosco I'm new to your channel and was looking forward to seeing more of him. I'm glad he had a happy life up until his passing, what an amazing pup

Fantastic advice.. We just brought home a new standard poodle to a home with a little dog a short while ago. Day 1, they were the same size, now the puppy is shy of 5 months and more than double the size. We do exactly as you are describing and it takes work to back up the old little guy but it has paid off well..

Now I feel extremely lucky that my 4year old girl dog really seems to love having our new 10 week old puppy around. They’re always playing together, with toys and play mouthing. She was always so sad when dogs came to visit but didn’t stay. Thanks for this information

So sorry to hear about Bosco’s passing. I just met him thru ur videos and fell in love. Didn’t realize he was gone 🥲 So nice that you have these videos to memorialize what an amazing dog he was 😍

Thank you!!! I have a new puppy with older dogs in the house. This is so helpful. Your videos are incredible.

Thank you for explaining everything, it is very informative. Now I know what to do before I bring home the pup next week :) Again, thanks!

You just recommended this video to me. Thank you for your answer!! Keep going with this content. Currently learning a lot

Just gained a subscriber!!! Just what I was looking for gave good advice and got to the point! Thank you!

My niece surprised me with a Maltipoo puppy for my birthday because my older dog is at the end of her years. She's blind, has arthritis etc..I got the puppy vaccinated, trained to do basic commands, fell in love with him. For 6 months, I really tried to get them to get along but in the end I decided I owed it to my older dog to go in peace when she's ready, not constantly being upset, snapping and barking at the puppy. I gave the Maltipoo back to my niece. She's keeping him but I'm sad that it came down to that choice. Thanks for this video. It helps to know I'm not alone.

Hi! I’m a new sub! I have an 11 yr old Chihuahua and just got an 8 wk Blue Heeler a week ago. So happy you made a video specifically about this, as I am struggling with getting my older dog to welcome the pup into the fold. I will change my technique since I thought my older dog was being too mean and unfriendly with the pup. Also following so that I can best train my Heeler as he’s growing. Thank you!

Needed this today. Thanks a lot, Joe.

Thank you for the tips!

A lot of good advice. Great video

this was just the thing i needed thank you.

Ty for this... much needed info!

My five year old chihuahua mix is still really playful and energetic so I figured it was a good time to get another puppy. My 5-year old is also the center of my universe and I know when she passes it’s going to destroy me, I felt that having another dog to give my love and attention to would also be healthy for me. 😊

I recently came across your videos while watching Caesar vids😂. I have to say I find your approach and style infinitely more appealing! I have a 4 month old male Boston terrier. He. Is. Insane. He’s shown aggression to other dogs, both puppies and older dogs, and people. We love him dearly but cannot accept his bad behavior. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you and keep up the fantastic work.

So glad to see this. Over exuberant puppies too often get a pass, in the home and in the field. The most socially-appropriate dog I ever had was in a feral pack for his first two years. I wonder if puppies would be better off staying with the litter and mother for months and months.

I know this video was posted two years ago, but I recently brought home an 11 week old pit bull puppy. My adult dog is a ~6-7 year old pit bull. She is very healthy and dominant. The puppy gets on her nerves, but she corrects his behavior with growls and nips. I monitor the interactions, but I rarely intervine because my adult dog will defend herself and does not put up with his crap. Earlier today she gently pinned the puppy on his side and waited for him to calm down. He rolled over on his back and licked her face. Once he did that she walked away. He pounced on her again and she did the same thing. I think it all depends on the adult dog.

You need some really cool wallpaper installed on that wall first. Then you need to layer some nice pieces of artwork on top. Maybe use that killer Whale piece as a color palate to plan from. You could also ad some display shelving on either side of you and decorate them with some items. You could have the camera zoom out a bit to show what you’ve done on the wall. Good luck my man.

Brought home my 4th puppy a few weeks ago with 5 year old lab at home. I've learned that dealing with situations is dependent upon age, personalitu and temperament of existing dog. If the existing dog is well socialized for the most part I let the adult dog correct the puppy and teach it manners. Btw the adult is 95 pounds and the puppy is 15 pounds and they pay great together. Except they will get a little manic because they don't want to stop and I do separate for breaks. Great advice. Ty.

Thanks for this.

Nice office. Plants are nice. And a small liquor bar. And a coffee station.

Thank you for this advice. We recently added a sixth puppy to our pack. Before he came everything was good. Now some of the other dogs are showing aggression towards one another which is upsetting but we are working on it. Always learning.:)

Makes sense and very insightful!

Decor suggestion.. A portrait either side of you of your ‘top dogs’ so to speak. Doberman’s have always been my favourite breed and I’ve fallen in love with Prince since seeing your videos. Would be really striking having him over your left shoulder.

My puppy was 16 lbs. when she met our Great Pyr, who is 120 lbs. Not a big deal then, but as the puppy has grown our GP, who is almost 9 years old, is getting beat up. We won't let the pup go near the GP unless she's on a leash or line. I wish I had known when we first brought her home. It's harder to break this habit in our puppy, but we need to protect our older girl. Thanks for the advice!

You could hang up a painted version of different dog breeds around you! 🥰

Hi! I have a follow up quick question about this. My 4 months old puppy is finally big enough to play with our 35 kg 6 years old female. When they are outisde and playing, they both seem to really enjoy it and both of them are doing play bows, but it is ALWAYS the female that "wins" and it is ALWAYS the puppy that is being chased, never chasing her himself. She is a pretty dominant dog with a clear language and she is absolutely amazing with him, but I was wondering whether this type of play is okay. I hear from every source that dogs should take turns in play.

I had newnstray puppy. Stayed with me for about a month then introduced to our compound dog. He was only angry for a day then they were so loving the nexf day. It really depends.

We have a 1 1/2 year old boxer and we just adopted a 9 month boxer/heeler mix. We did 2 meet & greets at the shelter just to be sure they get along ok, but I’m having a little problem with my older boxer being too rough. I’m trying to let him know he’s older but I’m the one in charge. Any advice?

Wow, I guess I didn’t think this through. I have a 14 year old Yorkie and just got a 8 week old Yorkie. My older dog is not receiving her well. Wish I had seen this video earlier. I want my older dog to be comfortable with this.

We have a 3yr old German shorthair pointer he weights 80lbs and we got him at 8 weeks. He is a great well behaved dog and gets along great with all sizes of dogs. He has never mouthed or jumps on other dogs. He also has never played with toys with another dog either. He will just drop it and walk away. Doesn’t seem to be a dominate dog. We now just brought in a 3month old bloodhound puppy. The first day they meet went great!! Did it in the front yard and then went into the back yard. Puppy was timid when our 3yr old play bounded and ran around him. He did pee once from being scared. 3yr old never jumped on him or tan him over or even mouth him. The next day our new puppy just starts bitting, chasing, sometimes barking, takes toys away from our 3yr, and just won’t leave him alone. Every time our 3yr goes to get water/toys/comes to us for affection. He come over to drink/take away/ bit him. We have let our 3yr try and tell him to go away by pushing him over, pushing him down on the neck with his mouth and bark at him. Puppy has never made a noise as if he is hurt or run away. He just keeps going back for more. He has the curled up face too and he is leave red scratch. It’s been 5 days now of this and he won’t let up. He is very sweet to us and just does the more puppy play bits with us. Just don’t know what to do and our 3yr is getting stressed. We do the ear rubbing to reassure him. But we don’t want this to change him and do it to other dogs. Any advice would be wonderful.

Helpful, thanks

Just brought home a new puppy to be a playmate for our usually rambunctious 3 year old cockapoo. The 3 year old is SOOO depressed. Not eating, not playing, even getting sick. It has only been a couple days so I hope this is temporary.

We waited until our oldest dog passed b4 I got another puppy. We had 2 dogs the surviving dog Duke my Welsh collie was 7½. He refused to be in the same room as Delta my shepherd until she was around 12 weeks unless she was asleep in her crate and from 12 weeks until nearly 20 weeks she had to be asleep at otherside of the room for him to be in the same room. We honestly thought had made a big mistake especially since it was only 3 months from losing our Leonberger to getting Delta but we noticed he'd started having accidents in the house and they stopped as soon as we brought her home and he was playing with us more than he had in yrs, so we let him go out of the way upstairs to the bedroom a place that was his only (well also the cats) and he set the pace on being in room by the time Delta was 6 months we were having to seperate them so that they chilled out and stopped playing like crazy for 5 mins. He did a lot of grumbles and growls at her when she was smaller telling her to back off so she then came to me to play. He still does that when he doesn't want to play (he's 9 now) and it takes 1 and she's OK ill go find somebody else. He hasn't done any of the extreme staying out of the way with our 5 month old Leonberger puppy but he has Delta who's only 20 months to pester and play with and Duke will join in if he wants. I was advised by a trainer that I make Duke be in the room with Delta or get rid of her as only way would be OK with her. So glad I ignored that and let him set the pace instead although it has made me less empathic with people selling their puppies after having a week because the older dog doesn't want to play or cuddle the puppy straight away

What do you think is the best age difference between dogs? I have a female standard poodle that is five years old and we are getting a moyen sized poodle puppy in the summer. I am hoping this is a good age difference and my older dog won’t have too much trouble adjusting.

Good timing, bringing home a puppy in 3 weeks and we have a 13 year old dog too.

Put up any diplomas or certs behind you in your office, maybe some cactus :)

Thank You. Our 9 kg dachshund is almost 6 yrs old and can't walk due to ivdd .His back legs aren't good so he is more vulnerable and suffers more anxiety. We just brought home a 9 week old mini dachshund who is less then 2 kgs.and now slowly need to integrate them...thanks for this video and any extra tips for this situation would be appreciated

Would you recommend any training for an older dog before getting a pup? What I’m worried about is my blue heeler (older dog) being aggressive with the pup. I picked him up at the age of 4 and never got to socialize him. He’s 8 now.

How can I introduce a puppy to a reactive older and bigger Doberman? I'm just cautious since they are so far apart in size. I've had experienced doing it before with my 5 yr old doberman and 3 month old mexican hairless puppy but it was bad at first because his nip/correction is a VEY BIG BITE for my very small puppy. The puppy was behaved and was just walking past behind my doberman but he didn't want the puppy near him. Good thing he wasn't aggressive to the pup, it was just a warning bite, but I don't want to have to go to the vet the next time I have a puppy over. Should I just separate them until the puppy is a little bit bigger? Or just constantly look out for the puppy so that the two of them won't come too close to each other??

Needed this! We have a 4.5 month old female golden doodle and a 14 year old male malti-poo (whom we've had since he was 1). We wanted a puppy while he is still with us to help him regain some youth. Might have been something we should have pondered more before we brought her home, but it is done now. The pup wants so badly to play with him, but he isn't into it, especially because she's now double his size. Again, this is SO what I needed to hear/see (and had a question asked in the comments of another one of your videos). Thanks!

I have 2 puppies brothers about 7 months old. one keeps full on going after the other I am running out of things to try to deal with this any suggestions used to think it was food related until he would do that when we would pet him then go to his brother and pet him and vise versa

Hi, I like your videos. Great content! I have a male chihuahua puppie who is 13 weeks old. I have Decided to buy one more dog, a American pit bull terrier, also male. The apbt is not born yet. But it will be delivered to me in October, when it’s 3 months old. What are your recommendations for me to do so they can be friends because I have heard that the combination of this two breeds is not good. Best regards!

Another great video. I have a young 4 month old puppy and we are thinking of getting another one at some point. Ideally I am thinking several months from now or when the first dog is a year old. When do you think would be the best time (what age the first dog should be) to bring another puppy in?

Can I ask a follow-up question? I had a 13 year old corgie mix (was a rescue and very timid) and a 3 yr old cattle dog (purchased as a pup. Everything was going fine until one day I came home to a massacre. The cattle dog mauled the corgie mix to death. In retrospect I should have been kenneling the cattle dog when I wasn't home. At the time I had been debating with myself on whether or not I should have the corgie put to sleep as she was having difficulty with walking. Could you speak on having a younger dog (not a puppy) and a much older dog and the dynamics of dominance between the 2? I've searched and can't find any info on the topic. And my mother in law just got a cattle dog pup and she has a very old jack russle who's going senile. I'd hate to see a repeat incident. Thank you.

Love your videos. We have a 16-year-old shih tzu who is blind and very slow. He can’t defend himself from a puppy! We were considering a standard poodle puppy but I’m concerned about the size difference and our old guy getting clobbered! But my young teen daughter is homeschooled now and I really want a dog she can work with, hike, agility, etc. She’s been asking for years. How do you make this decision wisely???

I have a 10 year old large breed dog We lost our 9 year old female earlier this year Yesterday we brought home a 2 1/2 month old pup I want to let Louie take charge but he’s so big I’m afraid he will hurt the pup Your advice is logical but I’m worried about the pup Louie is number one

So I screwed up and introduced our 18 month old mastiff mix (was on the kill list) by bringing it into our home with our older 10 years old min pin mix. I has been 2 1/2 weeks and our older dog is still nervous and not happy but not aggressive. She is however on alert (tail up, nervous wag, bulging eyes). That said the younger and obviously bigger dog is a lover. Parks she loves all dogs. She loves all people. Absolute dream dog except our older dog isn't accepting of her yet. The younger dog will pounce and kneel in play mode but the older dog growls or shows discontent. We feed the older dog when we humans eat, and feed the new dog last. She's very patient and lays down waiting and pays no attention to the older dog eating. We are accustomed to leaving our older dog alone in the house alone for hours but now we are having to crate them both just in case.... Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Wall color needs to change maybe a soft blue. Frame around whales too stoic. Pic of dogs or family in background and back camera out to be more inviting. Old office we were in the zone with you. This is sterile. Also our 8 month old nips at us when we correct her. She's a husky and still bitey. Maybe a future video on that. You've inspired us so much. Thank you

New puppy my older gal is 4 yrs old n she hates me 😢😢😢 ugh but this video gives me hope

QUESTION ON LIVING TOGETHER I have an issue with the behaviour and listening from my 9 month Corso - only since we got our new Boxer puppy Gretel. Dot Corso is now all about the puppy and she has started to blow me off. She was great at listening, well-behaved and loved training before Gretel Boxer arrived. Gretel is very confident and full-on play fighting - I'm stopping the puppy when she goes nuts with the older pup and I limit their time together - what else can I do to get back my well-behaved, attentive Corso pup ?? Free-range dogs, especially Corsos. are not acceptable.

Dog wall paper would be great.

We had our old dog pass away, and we had a golden we brought in before he left we got 2 more years out of our old dog, my wife surprised me with a puppy 3 months later and our golden has aggressively attacked the puppy, Ruu will drop a toy in front of the puppy and when the pup goes to investigate she gets attacked, we've taken the toys away when they are together and they are starting to play but Ruu is always just on the edge of aggressive, when my kids have gone and run with the dogs Ruu has recently started to nip and almost bite, I've had 5 bogs Ebb is the 6th but Ruu is the most aggressive I've ever seen... Any ideas on how I can help the two to get along

I have a 13 year old Mal-Shi and she is generally okay with dogs but doesn’t love them. She is definitely an older girl and I don’t think it’s fair to take away the love and attention she should be getting in her final years or however long we have left with her. I would love to get a puppy but I don’t need one, especially if it means sacrificing the happiness of my current pooch. My girl still has plenty of energy and life left in her but I’d worry that a puppy would be too much for her. People are genuinely surprised by her age, the only thing that gives it away a bit is the sensitivity, she’s never particularly loved strangers or younger kids but she’s become a lot less tolerant of them, she won’t bite but will yelp and growl especially if they are touching her wrong or come up from behind. I think if I were to get a puppy she would be stressed and not at all happy. That’s not something I want for my dog.

I have a 1.5 year old lab And a brand new 6 month old cavoodle We just had our first night And it's crazy, which was expected Lab is being quite rough with him and the little boy is non stop humping Any advice on what I should do?

Have a 14 year old half toothless 11 pound shih tzu.. just got a 2 year old mutt from the pound.. she has no interest in him until she does n wants to attack hi n get aggressive.. he can't n won't defend himself.. I prop him up all day but he has lost his home in his old age n she is taking over. She is almost fully trained in every way but still looks at him like a squeaky toy.. any advice or tips.. I've been all over the net n this is the first situation that relates to our situation...

Sir I don't know if you will see this I came across this video video I have a question that you might be able to help with we have a puppy she is now 4 Months old she is a German shepherd we also have a six-year-old lab I tried to feed them together for the 1st time to see how it would go and it did not end up well she scratched the puppy on her snout causing a deep scratch or gash from her tooth... Eventually as a puppy gets bigger we are going to allow allow her to be with and leave her with the lab in their dog run area area for now we fear that something bad could happen any ideas or tips how we can get them to get along and how we can feed them at the same time in the same area

I have a ten week old Shih Tzu and a ten year old Puggle. The puppy is playful and jumpy and there are times when my older dog allows it, but when she has had enough.....she lets the puppy know. My concern is this; the puppy is fearless and sometimes doesn't listen to the correction. I swoop in and move them apart but how do I know if the correction is too much?

I have a red nose pit and I just got 2 ten week old pues american bullies .I let my 2 year old red nose meet the pups in a play Pen and my red nose keep going around in circle looking at the pups .the pups wanted to get close to them .the smelled each other nose for 30mins then I wanted to see if the older dog wouldn't bit them .but she was gentel with them but she kept using her paw to move them trying to flip them over to smell them and she kept doing it for like 30 mins .I want to know what does this mean

I used to have 2 eskies but I had to put the female to sleep in December due to cancer. They had been together for 13 years. Since then my 14 year old male has been quiet and I think depressed except when we go for walks. I have been planning on getting a Sheltie puppy to keep him company and I think he will generally feel better with another dog in the house. My male has always liked other dogs and all people. Any advice? I plan on a controlled introduction and crate training

At what age can I start training my puppy to heel?

I have a question for a reactive dog to other dogs on leash only. I have a dog that plays with other dogs frequently. However, if I take him on a walk he will be very reactive to other dogs. His loose leash walking is perfect besides that. When I mean perfect I mean the only time he tries to leave my side is to react to another dog. Hope you can help!

You could put up "tip of week" behind you

This was so helpful to me. We rescued a one year old Husky and he’s too rough on our older Pomeranian. It’s giving me so much anxiety. The husky was my husband’s idea and execution and I’m really upset.

I have a 9 year old German shepherd female and we recently brought home a 9 month old blue heeler male. My issue that I’m having is my German shepherd is taking toys from our heeler, not letting him play. Even when I’m out there trying to play fetch she will take the fisbee/ball and nip at the heeler. I got our heeler pup a herding ball to help prevent him nipping and biting our toddlers, but our German shepherd won’t let him play and he is too scared to play when she is in the backyard too! Help!!

lol I have a completely different problem. My new puppy (a Burmese mountain dog/maremma) isn’t bugging my older dog (kinda German Shepard but a lot of other breeds) but my older dog just completely avoids him. He’s very shy around everything, how would I deal with getting the older dog more comfortable?

I have a 8 year old boston terrier and my friend has an american bully litter, american bullys xl gets really big fast do you recommend we get him or pass on the offer? Id appreciate your reply thank you!!

What about when the older dog is stealing and hoarding the puppy's chew toys and getting resource guardy with the chewies? I'm afraid that our older dog will encourage resource guarding in our puppy and the puppy needs to be able to chew things. We do buy one for each of them and there are several different high value chewies for each of them but it does feel like our older dog (4 years) is just being a dick. I want him to set boundaries for the puppy but I also don't want him to encourage dangerous behavior in the puppy or to allow our older dog to engage in dangerous behavior. As an additional note, our older dog does not exhibit resource guarding with us, but does with the cats and the puppy.

I have a 9 year old dog and she hates smaller dogs and puppies. I dont know why but just hates them and gets aggressive. Sometimes I am looking after a puppy in my home and usually just separate the two but was wondering, can I fix this issue?

Im currently struggling with this issue, sort of. My adult male intact dominant dobie is a JERK to my friends new belgain mal puppy. He wont let up on him. I have to keep him muzzled and keep him from staring at the puppy. He wont submit to me and that ive accepted the puppy and he wont even let up in the puppys home/territory. Its been a month and hes not letting it go. My dog is one of those dogs that understands he cannot bite through the muzzle but around the puppy he immediately lunges and tries to bite him with the muzzle on. So when my friend and i want to hang out and we have to have our digs with us, I sit on the bed with my dog and hang on to my dogs collar and we just have to sit there like that while we catch up and then when we see the puppy is getting tired, we encourage the puppy to nap aroubd the corner and out of sight of my dog. Its frustrating. Both my friend and i are gonna have our dogs for a long time and we want them to learn to get along so we can do stuff together. My dog acts like a grumpy old man as soon as the puppy is around. His growls/vocalisations are different with the puppy than in any other situation. His voice gets very deep and very serious and intense.

We just got a mini schnauzer puppy and we already have a 13 and 9 yr old mini schnauzers. 9 yr old likes to play with her and is teaching her but the 13 yr old is too old to deal with her.

Curious about introducing a "young" dog, about 2 ish to a puppy that's about 8 months who's been at the house for over 3 months

Ok so I have a 9 year old Pitbull being introduced to a 7 week old. My puppy seems to be pretty nerves around Bentley(older guy) but today I seen Halo(puppy) playing with his toy and Bentley snapped at him. What do I do in the situation where the older dog randomly does thing?

I wish I would've found this before getting a puppy with our 11 year old lab. We recently lost our 10 year old GSD to cancer, so I thought a puppy would be a good idea. Every article I read said that it's good for an older dog to be around a puppy, it gets them a little more active and gives them a daily companion. I think I'm going to get a play pin that separates and block off half of the living room and limit their physical time for now. At what age do they know not to play rough with the older dog?

We have a 6 months old female Shepsky, we are thinking about adding an Akita puppy to our home, is it good idea with just age difference of 3 months between them ? Or should we wait another 6 months ?

I'm adding a new puppy to my assistance dogs life because he's 7 now and can't work for ever. Thank you for this

I have a new 8-week old husky mix and a 1 year old shihtzu terrier. my shihtzu isn't dominant and isn't teaching my husky puppy. whenever the husky puppy plays rough, my shihtzu just plays along with him but I'm scared that my shihtzu is getting hurt. I see that the husky puppy loves to bite her back and neck but she just plays along with it. she's not the type to yelp when hurt.

Here's my situation, I had 3 pit bulls my 9 year old suddenly passed away my other 2 pit bulls seem really sad because they all grew up together one is actually worse then the other and now they're missing him. So we brought home a new puppy and now one of the older pit bulls is quiet he doesn't want to eat and it seems like he's going to bite the new puppy. When we hold the puppy he jumps up and lunges at him but not really A biting lunge just a lunge but we don't want to take a chance we just don't know if he will bite the new puppy.

I have a 11 month old puppy and a 10 week old puppy. the older pup is acting territorial. any suggestions?

Help!! 4 month old Rottweiler and 11 yo Shih poo. If the Shih poo corrects or growls for puppy getting in his space Rottie is fighting back. He’s 55lb and older dog 20 lb. How do I stop this before older dog gets hurt.

Hi I have an 11 year old jack russel mix shes a shelter dog and I think she was bullied because she is of a small build she is NOT friendly with other dogs but does not growl or show any signs of aggression she is just uncomfortable and climbs up on me , how do I introduce a 2 year male jack russel as I dont want for him to end up on a shelter

Thank you. I have a 6 year old rescue I have had since she was a puppy. I just got a 12 week old pug and she try’s to play with my older dog. The older dog is just not into it.

So I have a 1 1/2 year old boy shih tzu (not spayed yet) and we’re bringing a girl puppy schnauzer home (emotional support) the thing is we don’t want him trying to get on top of her since she’s a baby, is that something we should be worried about. Should we get them both spayed asap? Or just keep an eye on them

Hes fine with other dogs out of the house .just wants to play..but I'm rescuing a neopoliton mastiff X cane corso this Friday latest Saturday who's 5 years old..has also lived with a dog and is fine with dogs when hes out ..I'm just worrying about bringing him home and noing the best and safest way to introduce the mastiff to my youngest dog.the youngest dog is fully under my control and defo ses me as the pack leader..plz plz try and help me put with a answer ASAP .or anyone who thinks they have the correct answer to get these dogs to greet eachother and become bestest of friends lol ..in the calmest .safest and best way possible?? Keep bringing your videos .they are extremely helpful ..the dog walking technique worked a treat in under 2 days to get my puppy to stop pulling.????

my older dog is afraid of the puppy we introduced them 1. the gate between them they started to play 2. we then put them both on leashes that wentt well but my older dog wanted nothing to do with this puppy.... he was brought up with my older dog and they were t ogether for 6 years, he was very depressed and was moping around - so we figured let me get a dog- no we got a puppy... any suggestions please

You mentioned that if the older dog is 3, 4, 5 years old it's totally different than a 10 year old dog. Can you elaborate on that? We have a happy go lucky 2 year old boxer mix that is trustworthy and well behaved (still working on the walk at times) and we are preparing to bring home a puppy in the next few months.

Great advice! Question: anyone told you that you look a bit like Michael Keaton? You could totally cosplay as Keaton's Batman. Or BeeltleJuice... 😀

I am having this problem right now with a 10 week Labrador pup snapping at my older Labrador who is 9 years old. He just won't chastise the puppy so I have to take my older boy to the bedroom to get some peace. When I tell the puppy off he lunges at me trying to bite me and I just don't what else to do. Please help!!

Great advice. Our 6 month lab is terrorizing our 8 year old beagle. Thank you

My 5 year old dog isn’t a big fan of my new puppy mainly when the puppy is right in his face other then that he keeps his eye on the puppy but is slowly getting more relaxed around him but still doesn’t like him right beside him.how should I proceed? I’m thinking just getting them comfortable in the same area split with a gate so they can still see and smell each other.couple times a day I’ll let my dog smell the puppy’s ass and he’s ok with that.maybe it’s the amount of energy the puppy has when he’s on all 4s instead of in my hands I don’t know?

I would start making shorts...and be sure to say "check out channel for full size content." And I'd talk to some younger people on ways to structure your content, and topics that can help new dog owners. I'd do that, "videos for first time appartment/house owners, and first time only dog owner." Lots of young people didn't learn to take care of ourselves or be an adult..so learning to properly raise a dog is needed.. Ye I'd also watch other popular content..it may help you make videos you "like," more. But I'd judge your shorts by how many clicks you get on full size videos from its advertising. But make content you like..not get obsessed with views. take care!!

Thank you so much!!! You've just made my day (and my attitude) a lot better. I've only had one other puppy, and that was 15 years ago. I've forgotten how craaaazy puppies are...and she's 4 months old...and we have an 8 year old dog who is totally annoyed with us for getting this new little vermin, that is disrupting his once tranquil, pampered lifestyle! I am just about at my wits end, but I think you've giving me hope. Now if only you'll assure me that we turn the magic corner at 5 months old, and we will be past the nightmarish nipping and biting!! ;)

what if the older dog gets too aggressive with the puppy?

We have a 3 yr old German Shepherd who is obnoxious. We cant take him on walks because he lunges at other dogs. He is very territorial of our family (all adults) and home. He has separation anxiety, barks out the window everytime our neighbors come out. We cant have visitors and cant take him anywhere. I have to lock him in the room when kids come over. It’s horrible! This is our fault because we did not properly socialize him as a puppy due to time constraints.. then COVID and we stopped walks completely. We brought home an 8 week old puppy this week. We aren’t keeping her; she is my sister’s dog. We are just taking care of her until she is old enough to get her rabies shots so she isn’t quarantined for 4 months per Hawaii’s strict quarantine laws… then she is moving to Hawaii to my sister. I don’t know what to do and life has been miserable keeping them separated. And it hasn’t even been a week! I am afraid my GS might hurt her. He has never bitten another dog or person, but we haven’t ever given him the opportunity either so I really don’t know if he is truly a threat or not. Our neighbor also has a dog and my GS goes nutts everytime he sees her. One time he jumped our fence (we have since built a higher fence) and charged her. But he only got in her face and barked at her; he didnt attack her or even touch her so I wonder if I am just being paranoid and my GS isn’t really vicious. Today we slipped and forgot to put the barrier to my room up so the puppy followed us into the hallway when we opened our door. My GS was right there and they bumped noses without incident but i immediately picked her up and brought her back in my room away from my GS. How can I tell if I am just being paranoid or if my fears are warranted?
