    Hi I have two dogs a west highland terrior(bitch) and a ****zu(Dog) they get on great together and there is no issue there but I'm considering getting another dog a german shepard pup, I'm just wondering how the other two dogs would take to a new pup being around?

    You're probably the best person to answer that- how are the two of them with other dogs? Do you know anyone you could set up a few play dates with just to see how they react to other/younger dogs?

    Because they don't socialise with other dogs freely I'm not too sure, when they are being walked they are usually fine with other dogs. But when it comes to feeding time they will snarl at each other which I think is natural anyway. What age would a pup be ok to socialise by that I mean less vulnerable to illness/disease etc
