How do I introduce my mini dachshund puppy to lab mix dog?

Raquel C asked:


I am traveling home with my puppy dachshund to my parent’s house that has a lab mix dog. Our lab mix dog is very loving but not towards other dogs, she has even gotten in fights with neighborhood dogs, but eventually becomes **********. My puppy is very sociable and he is very playful and I fear my lab mix attacking the puppy since she is teriotorial. Should we just keep them apart or attemp to introduce them?

    The lab is good way to meet sometime try meeting on nuetral territory is less likely to him both of you you you get feel for walk towards eachother dogs on nuetral territory is good way to the lab mix you dont let them sniff if its safe and meeting on leashes and meeting.
