Puppy advice

While I pretty much agree with what's been stated - I would say that I have never had any adult/existing dog act aggressive towards a new puppy before.

Our neighbor recently got a new Boston Terrier puppy who I introduced to TJ. I held the puppy while kneeling down, called TJ - let him/them smell each other - then placed the puppy down who proceeded to climb all over TJ like any puppy would. TJ just sat there letting him for a few minutes - then they both took off running around the yard playing. That's a normal scenario for any dog that I have had.

So I might be a little cautious of any dog that would nip at a puppy.
