[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 315185, member: 6546"] Hello.... Two things: One--not all dogs "get along" with one another. Sometimes there's nothing you can do about it. Two--dogs will teach one another. If the lab has never learned to behave in a pack, the older dog will eventually "teach her a lesson". It might be very painful! but eventually she will "get" it. (We recently went through the process of adopting a second dog. Our first choice just did not get along with the older dog....so after trying many things, it became obvious that there was going to be some nasty fighting between the two--so we returned the second dog to the shelter before anyone got hurt. Our second choice seemed a better "fit" for our family--but even so, she needed to learn her place and there were a few ugly moments when the older dog felt compelled to discipline her for her various offenses. Today--they are inseparable! the best of friends.) Good luck! --DaisyFace [/QUOTE]
