Same hypothetical question, and a couple more.
My dog roams the house, but the pup would be in a crate until housebroken. Would you keep them in a crate together? I would feed the older dog first, would you let the pup watch to establish some sort of "pac-rules"?

Well, we drove to St. Paul and had a great time at the PF Fest. Lots to do and see, and I treated myself to a Carl Melichar Brit painting. Saw lots of beatiful pups, and litterally had to pull myself away from most of them. Lot's to do for the kids too (woodworking, "fishing" and the girls got to to...

Penny was the same way, at first in the kennel then later when confined to the kitchen. It was hard to ignore her at night, because my husband needed to go to work early in the morning (I took time off from work). I would leave the room, and stand outside the door until she was quiet, then come back...

Buying dogs on-line

I know there was a post earlier this month about finding breeders/dogs online, but i can't find the thread. I know the person running the website posted too, just can't remeber the name.
I'm very leary (sp) about "buying dogs on-line", unless I can find reputable breeder from a trustworthy website.

I have found that bird-dogs as a whole make great pets, as long as they get enough exercise (physical and mental exercise). It sound like you're already on the right track there.

With Penny we used a comination of lip on the canines, and finger down her throat. Our firends also used to "yelp" when their Beagle bit them, and then scold. Worked for them.
