[nagdu] Coming home

[Mary Wurtzel]

Hello,
One thing that we did when Filix was introduced to our pet dog was to take
our pet outside.  They could meet in neutral territory.

I noticed that when the topic of how long to keep your new dog on leash,
there was a wide variety of opinion.  I died what my school recommended.

Okay, so this is the post I was planning. It may show relation to other
thread, but I am hoping to get a little deeper here. I know that the
different schools have different policies on coming home and how to work
with the dog in the first months, but still, putting that aside, people do
not always go by what is recommended and instead do their own things.
Mostly I am wondering from the experienced people. Do you keep your dogs on
leash for a certain amount of time at home? If so how long? And how does
this work out with the other animals? I know dogs and cats always want to
get a little friendlier than they should, they do even at school, so how is
this handled? Do you all go by recommendations or what?How does it work for
you and not only in regards to the other animals in the house. Blessed Be.
Eve
