How to Introduce a New Pet to a Multi-Pet Household


You just bought another pet. Now what? You should make a proper introduction of your new pet to all your resident pets. If your resident dogs have taken obedience training before, they would have a much easier time to make an adjustment to welcome your new pet. A disciplined dog would respond well to your basic commands, and this would make the transition period for the new pet a lot easier. 

Do you know how all your resident pets would react to the new pet? If you have absolutely no idea, it would be best to put them all in a leash. It would be easier to control your resident pets in case they make any untoward reactions. Tell your resident pets "sit!" (or "leave it") with a firm voice if they try to run after your new dog or cat. Don't forget to prepare some treats in advance, so you can reward desired behavior. 

Your new pet will benefit from regular health checks at your vet clinic Lakewood Ranch, FL.
