Re: [pyrnet] Adoption of Pyr

I would also add to make sure you pick up and put away all toys, in case you 
have some that are overly possessive...especially rawhide and chewies, etc.
Also, the first feedings should be closely monitored, if not separated by 
baby gates, 
that could be another "problem" area.
I have found that walking all of them together, if you can (maybe you can 
recruit someone to help) that way they are away from all property and 
possessions and are kind of forced to pack and bond together.  I walk all 
five of mine every day and that really helped when I introduced the newest 
guy, a Pyr named Bobo.
I still have to feed Bobo upstairs, babygated in my bedroom.  I don't want 
him stressed or rushed when he eats (fear of bloat) and that seems to work 
well...
Best of luck and congrats on your new addition!
Best regards,
Lisa, Belle, Bobo, Chance, Derby, and Oliver
