We had a seven year old female Border/Blue Heeler mix (Sasha) and want to get a second dog. We want to make sure that Sasha gets along with the new pup and doesn't feel jealous and hopefully maternal as opposed to threatened. Sasha is very needy when it comes to my wife and gets separation anxiety when she leaves. Any advice on how to find a pup she will accept? Breed, sex, etc., how to get them integrated? Sasha does have other dogs she gets along with, but did get in a dominance situation when we tried an adult rescue dog a few years ago. Just not completely sure how she will react to a new permanent addition to the family.
I've never had more than one dog at a time so this is new territory. Just want to make sure we do this right.
