New puppy arriving in January
Hello everybody. .... I am thrilled to say we will be getting a puppy at the beginning of January and I would really appreciate your advice on how to make her introduction to our existing 3 year old chow a happy and stress free experience. Many thanks
Re: New puppy arriving in January
Have you gotten your new pup yet? How'd intros go? My Chow is super chill with other dogs, so it worked out well when I brought another home. All are different though, I had one Chow that was a bit grouchy with new dogs. She'd adjust eventually, but always had to keep a close eye on her at first.

You have a Smooth Applebear, that can really make all the difference.
Irfish, you don't mention whether they are same *Censored Word*, etc. That can make things more difficult, but not impossible. A 3 year old is going to be pretty established in the home, so you do want to set some boundaries. Let us know how the 1st couple weeks went.
