Getting two dogs to live with each other with dfferent engery levels. Help?
I have a 7 year old (52lbs) and and 18 month old (110lbs). They know each other well both live a a different family member. We are combining households so they will now love with each other. The problem is the puppy is very large and very hyper and I dont want my other dog to get hurt during play time they usually only play with each other 2x a week for about 2 hrs and then separated by a baby gate for the rest of the day. How long do you think it will take for them to get use to living with each other? They both get their separate attention for their engery levels i.e. long walks, beach/pool time, one-to-one attention.
