Two are better than one

The best way to show the two dogs, who are now living together more or less, on neutral ground.

More dogs-more conflicts

Not everyone who is without problems, it was in the parks and along with the chasing clubs, without protests greeted the same dogs without training with him at home. If, however, found common ground in the game, and branded the same chests, their closer inspection at home will be easier.

If you decide to have more dogs, it is better to buy puppies. Among them is the smallest risk that would later produce the conflicts. One of them will be more dominant and you need to build a training plan.

For groups of dogs of various ages, sizes, breeds, sex, etc., it is necessary to affect the structure of the Pack, so that the newcomers satisfactorily incorporated. Each pack has a consistent hierarchy, but it depends on the specific breed, as rookie of the old members. It is known that hunting dogs used to cooperation in the Pack are snasenlivejsi to the new incoming than breeds such as the guards, who used to live and work as a singlove. For example, the Beagle has a tendency to bullying, whereas Rottweiler or guardian dogs are strongly developed territorial sense can the problems likely to be expected.

To reduce the possible manifestations of aggression, it is necessary from the beginning to strengthen a dominant position for the first dog that you gave him to know that the rookie did not endanger its current position. The critical point is feeding: the first dog, do not change the existing practice, the second keep feeding (at least for a start) to another location.

It is inevitable that both dogs pomeri forces. If there is no blood, to the dispute does not interfere, because building a permanent order. If you are in possession of two dogs, may seem a little harsh, it is necessary to promote the original dog.

Dogs who have even with your ujasnenou the hierarchy, from time to time they have nepohodnout, but it is unlikely that it would hurt. Child in time the dog will lie on his back and recognise the superiority of the dominant, making the situation calms down. Small differences will sometimes occur, as in every family, without affecting its functioning. Keep but the breeds which was once was bred for fighting, in combination with other dogs, she was really strong, experienced and strong owner with kynologickou practice.

If you have small children, explain to them that they cannot and must not pay more attention to a new dog, even if it is for them a lot more interesting than the old dog.

More dogs-more work

The arrival of a new dog to the old zabehanych ways with so far only one dog may cause stress starousedlikovi, of which, for example, that the user forgets to cleanliness. But not only stress is the cause of bed-wetting or lighter ucuravani. Mainly males are under pressure from the testosterone and will automatically start to tag my territory, manners-nevychovani. If the situation best, it is possible to request a consultation or expert dog vet. Hormone levels can be edited, and if you do not have to be breeding the dogs, consider their castration. Suffer by pollution of a house or apartment is not wise because worsening of the environment and the dog itself calls for a change in the status quo, in which he did not help.

Go for a walk with two dogs on a leash requires the practice of their even from your side. His first dog, of course, you have zvladnuteho, so that on a leash ties; the second guide with a new dog in the same hands, which is better, than to keep each dog individually. Who has ever seen (or on their own experienced) the situation that each dog runs on the one hand, they will understand what it is.

Keep two dogs in one hand, however, requires more power, and power in particular as regards the large breeds. Mainly weaker family members prefer a combination of the right to disable.

Training of two dogs is also more difficult, even if they sometimes experience the situation, which, like the exception confirms the rule.

Practice together can be just naturally smeckovi dogs, who are on the same training level. If your new dog, a complete beginner, it is better to practice each separately. Certainly you can't in full early to assume that the new dog will be followed by all mazaka.He, therefore, don't let the guide until it in individual classes teach basic over.

Even in the game you must bear in mind that the priority must be the dominant dog. The ball then roll ahead of him and later plug into the game second dog. If the second is the faster, the conflict is probably as well.

Special chapter are worried that you raised, if you get a dog and bitch. When a bitch harat and is in a phase in which the dotirajiciho of the domestic dog, yet can be very aggressive towards him; and when your bitch interested foreign dogs in the Park, be aware that conflict occurs when your dog her jealously guarded. And when the dog cannot control whether prior to, or from a foreign male, you have taken care of other business.

More dogs-greater cost

It is understandable that with the number of dogs are directly proportional to your costs. In addition to the sums for the acquisition of another dog you must reckon with the increase in expenditure for vaccination, de-worming, antiparazitarni preparations for veterinary care in case of sickness or accident for the castration and hormonal treatment for the removal of dental stone for toys, pelisky, dish, travel guides, cages, collars.

More dogs more like it. And if you have dogs of various ages, sizes and workloads, you can't feed from one bag. Don't forget the supplements and to compensation for damage to your (i) foreign assets.

More dogs-more joy

Two or more dogs you after what you will clarify the mutual relationship will, in fact, far more than a single individual. Two dogs to keep, even if you're at work, and when you place their dogs for a period of leave to known, or in a kennel, will have one in the second security and support.

The co-existence of puppy an old dog occasionally senior as crusty grumpy, but in principle it company of the young part physically and psychologically from; a puppy, learn to tolerate the vagaries of old age, making him older dog soon and sometimes bluntly.

And last but not least, with two or more dogs you'll feel much more joy than with only one. Just watch the game or pair of the Pack of dogs is pleasing to the eye and a band-aid on a bad mood.
