On feeding, when I had multiple dogs I always did the same as Zande, all dogs fed at the same time, although not always the same place. When the weather was nice I sometimes fed outside. But wherever, I sat and supervised until everyone was finished. I had one who would try to poach if not watched, but she knew better than to make a move with me sitting there. Never had a serious fight with any of mine, and never a disagreement over food, but a breeder I know had to permanently separate two bitches who hated each other and would fight instantly if they had the opportunity....the cause of their dislike had nothing to do with food and everything to do with one bitch interfering with the other one's pups.
Adjusting the B's to a new home? Tips?
-
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?
