Well for those of you that remember me asking for advice last week on how to introduce a new rescue GSD bitch to our current aggressive bitch, I would just like to update you and tell you that the step dad did take note of the advice, but after collecting the new dog was too knackered from walking to and from the kennels he decided to bring the dog straight to the house
BUT everything went fine
As it happens as he had gone to get the new dog I kept taking Cassie out on the field to tire her out as much as possible and on the way back to house we bumped into each other on a corner.
I am absolutly gobsmaked with how it went, there has been a bit of snapping but its just play fighting and Cass will snap when she has had enough and 'Boo' backs off.I won't say they are best friends, Boo seems pretty obsessed with Cassie and follows her around 24/7 and licks her at every possible opportunity, where as Cassie is really not that bothered and probably wishes the newcomer would leave her alone!
So far no problems, Boo is slowly coming out of her shell, is learning to shake a paw (Poor Cassie sits next to her doing everything we have taught her at once the whole time we are asking Boo to do stuff) and should put on some weight soon.Although we are sure she has had a beating, a raised hand or voice makes her cower, but she won't be getting any of that.She frets and gets very anxious when someone leaves the room aswell but apart from that she is absolutly fine!
Here she is
Cassie so not impressed with being told to sit next to her
