I’ve got a 7yo JRT Cross female and have just adopted a second 2yo male. We’ve had him for two weeks. For the first week she was ambivalent towards him, since then they’ve been getting on really well and been playing together loads. I’ve just been sat on the sofa trying to stroke them both and they started to play- lots of mouthing. It then seemed to escalate into a spat. They were separated and sent to their beds. They’re quiet now and settled.
I feel a bit worried that this could happen again, and also sad that they might not get on.
I’m not sure if there was some jealousy going on in the older dog as I was sat with them, if it was her testing the water or a sibling type of spat?!
Any advice appreciated 😊
