First up you should consult a vet. Your vet might solve the problem for you, or will, if necessary, refer you to someone who specializes in animal psychology; this might sound stupid, but such specialists can do wonders. There could be many reasons why your dogs are not getting along, in the same way there are many reasons why people don't get along. It might seem expensive to consult a vet and possibly a specialist, but that's nothing compared to the problems you'll suffer if your dogs continue to make life difficult for themselves and the humans they live with. The very last thing you want is to be forced to find new homes - or worse - for creatures who trust you with their lives. to add to this answer the best way for pets to get along is to have them get to know each other before bringing home this dog/puppie have them smell each other allowing them to see what there like. Then unless ur corrent dog is aggresive towards food put a small divider in front of the dogs food dishes place on dogs dish on one side and the other on the other side this allows your dogs to smell each other around the wall (but your dogs are in less harm) if its a puppie bring him to your house or have the dog vist him/her where he/she stays (ask vet,breeder,store owner who ever has the puppie) then let them get along. Remember always reword treats to your dog and your other dogf for good behavior around each other and for more information on chewing and other things I say try the books with the titles of : Golden Retrievers For Dummies, Golden Retriever 101, and Love That Golden. these are great informational books i have had 4 Golden Retrievers. I hope that helped Thank You.
introduce them slowly to each other in a place where they both feel comfortable, and where they are supervised. assuming that one dog is more aggressive than the other, allow the aggressive one to be the approacher to the other. if the aggressive dog approaches the other dog with his tail between his legs, crouched a bit low to the ground, or showing signs of being dominant over the other dog, correct this by putting your hand in front of his face (not too close) and a light tss sound. he might approach the other dog this way more than one time, but when he changes his attitude reward it with a pat on the head, but no vocal praising. this can make the dog exited/aggressive again. after you feel that the aggressive dog is naturally being passive with the other, then leave the room and see how they behave (of course being nearby so you can brake up a squabble if it occurs). it is better to be safe then sorry so make sure before you leave them alone that they are completely passive with each other. i can offer more advice on Dog Training, so if you are interested on teaching your dog anything else please email me at preppiething9090@aim.com. hope it works out!
One thing that sometimes works (crazy as it sounds) is to spritz all of them, and yourself, with the same perfume or aftershave. This reinforces that they are all members of the same "pack." Also, aggressive dominant behavior should be nipped in the bud as soon as you see it. To some extent, the dogs will jockey for position, but never let them aggressively gang up on any one dog. You should be the pack leader, not any of them.... this will also help them to get along better if they can all look to you for definite leadership. One more thing: if they each get a toy that they particularly like, you can make sure that they know this is one thing they don't have to share with the others. Most toys should be shared, but having one special thing that can be each dog's alone seems to make them happier to be with the group.
If the boxer is Mike Tyson maybe not, I'd worry about him biting the poor dog's ear off. Just kidding. Dogs of all types do get along well with one another, if they know one another. Some breeds are highly territorial and get along with others with difficulty, but raised together as pups, or adult dog and pup, usually most dogs actually do get along very well. Two adult dogs of hypersensitive breeds (Pekinese, spaniels, pincers, huskies, as well as many others) usually need more time to get to know one another well, but once they do tend to get along well.
Puppies aren't trained, adult dogs are
make them spend time with each other.?
Yes
It depends on the dogs behavior and personality so i cant really tell because i live two cats and they just plain hate each otherANSWER:I have three spayed female dogs, all the same age, and they get along great together.
Big dogs and rabbits seldom get along with a positive result.
Providing the two dogs have been well socialized and they are introduced in a neutral environment (local park etc.) there is no reason why these two breeds shouldn't get along.
Yes, Shih Tzus get along fine with other dogs as I have one and it gets along with alot of other dogs.
what is this
Puppies.
All dogs are classed adults at two years of age.
They train dogs because so dogs dont : jump bit run (into the road ) They also train dogs so they can get along with other dogs and so when you have a puppy and a adult dog they will get along .Also in my experience with dogs you can train dogs to get along with cats .My dog Emit and cat Cico got along wonderfully . My cat Cico layed by Emit .My cat hasn't got along with an other dog .Emit died about a year ago .We got an dog named Dash .Dash loves every bode but Cico doesn't love him as much as he did to Emit.Dash jumps on Cico he also gets clawed alot . I'm letting you this so you can get a dog trainer or just train your dog your self
