My dilemma started when we adopted Dog (that's his name): a rottweiler/shepard mix. We got him about 2 days ago. He is 3 years old, and we think was abused by his owner when he was young. He is a bit cautious around males, but really enjoys the women! Dog is a sweet and affectionate boy, he's super amazing!
My problem is with scarlet: she really doesn't seem to like him that much. I expected her to be jealous for a little while because she's been the baby for a long time, but I need to know how to make her stop herding him into one room, or following him around. He gets real annoyed and he is very afraid of Scarlet. Dog runs back into the bedroom and just lays on the bed to be away from Scarlet. She likes to follow him AS SOON AS he steps off the bed...and she won't leave him alone. I'm not sure what to do because he's so nervous and I know I need to work with him to get him comfortable in my place....but what can I do with Scarlet!?
I understand this will take time and having Dog for 2 days is def. not a long time at all, but I want to make both dogs comfortable with each other and with me.
Help!
