Our male Alaskan Husky, Rascal, is a year old and today while I was out running errands I met a lady who was taking a beautiful girl Bassett Hound, Gypsy, to the pound because it was lost and the people who were supposed to be taking care of the dog wouldn't come a get it. These people are supposed to be keeping care of this dog while the dog's owner is at war in Afganistan. I asked if I could give the dog a home and have our information forwarded to the care giver and owner of the dog. It looks like we may be caring for her now until the owner returns in February.
I am keeping their feeding and sleeping places separate. We have a kennel in the garage and a zip line across a large yard. We have several capable children who can do activities with each dog. But I'd like the dogs to get along! So far the Rascal is excited and eager to get to know the Bassett, but she snarls and snaps when he gets real close. Rascal is a good bit bigger and stronger. We have collars and leashes for them both, too. What more can I do? What should I be aware of? Thanks so much,
Betty
