Hi Everyone,
I have two rescue Great Pyrenees that are roughly 4 1/2 and 3 years old. My stepson is moving in with us at the end of July and bringing his 8 month old Boxer to live with us as well. I have been reading up on Boxers but am curious to hear if any of you have much bigger dogs that you have introduced a new Boxer to? We are hoping the ex-wife will get the dog altered before he comes here next month but it doesn't sound promising so he may be coming to us intact. He is about 45 pounds now and my two are 70 (female) and 95 (male) respectively (small for Pyrs).
We will have them meet on neutral ground for a walk together to see how things go and then bring them all home. He's still a puppy so I'm hoping that my two (Riley and Willow) will be accepting of their new pack member. They generally like other dogs and want to play with them but I belong to a Pyr chat group and I hear tales of two males sometimes fighting for position in the pack. My female is definitely the alpha in charge (behind me!) so it should be interesting to see how this goes. I'm really just hoping to avoid fights and never having had three dogs at one time don't know what to expect. Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
