We have had the best success by taking things slow and easy. Don't try to force the new dog into the pack. Keep the new dog in his own kennel or chain. Be sure to put a good natured dog ( preferably of the opposite sex) next to the new dog. As the new dog gets comfortable in their new environment slowly introduce them to each pack member. When you feel the time is right, test them by loading them into the box with a dog they get along with. You can always tie them up short with a double snap until you trust them.

Adding a new dog WILL upset your pack's social structure. Patience is the key.

We have a rule that no bulldog is ever allowed to run loose or be kenneled with another dog unless a capable adult is present. We have learned the hard way that preventive measures are required with any bulldog.

Good luck with the new dog! I'm sure they will be a nice addition to your operation.
