Hello! Well, the movers are coming tomorrow to take all my stuff away, and then we are hopping in the car on sunday to drive to NY! Just wondering if there are any tips to getting Tayda and Lenny acclimated to their new home? I imagine they will probably whine for a while when left alone in the new place. And they will have to meet the landlords dogs, with whom we will be sharing the fenced yard. I really hope Lenny doesn't try to kill them. That really wouldn't be a good first impression!

Any tips?

@tanza it can work if you can set up your home to work with the pup...

But if you can't ? (or find it easier not to)

There are studies from 15 years ago about spaying at the wrong time during a cycle and ending up with a permanently aggressive female. But even with regular spay/neuters a great deal of hormonal change can cause many dogs to react. It is biological but still important to stay on top of behaviors so they don't become common.

As for the fight...spayed, not spayed, neutered or not, it is not uncommon for dogs who have always been fine to have one fight and never get along again.

There are some worrisome new research about reactive and fearful behaviors with neutered dogs.

If anyone is interested, glad to share the links (too tired to fetch them tonight. Back to my normal backing up posts with links so that anyone wanting to read more can.)

Congratulations on the future new addition. Boy/girl is a good combination. As others have advised let them meet on neutral ground and take them for a long walk together. For every good interaction praise both inordinately. As Curlytails says don't rush it.

Keep us posted, please and best wishes to you all.

Tucker used to be bad about this. I think once your dog understands that you are to be respected and are his 'boss', he'll stop doing these things. The fact that he doesn't do it around your husband is indicative of this.

When I have company, Tucker tends to do this type of activity in front of them almost ALWAYS. If my friends come in from Belgium and stay with me, they use my bathroom. When they are in there, Tucker rips up the toilet paper in front of them and steals stuff off the bathroom counter and takes off with it. He rifles through their bags and takes the remote when they are watching TV. If I am in the room, none of this takes place. Tucker has finally reached this state of 'respect' for my GF also. He used to go through her stuff and whatnot, but 4 months later, he treats her like he treats me.
