    Getting a SPOILED dog to accept a new puppy?

    How do you introduce a new puppy to a SPOILED ROTTEN dog? We are thinking of adding another Papillon puppy to the family, but the thing is Sadie (also a Papillon) is sooo spoiled and such the princess. She gets jealous even I just even talk to another dog/cat...if she hears me talking to them, she runs and hops into my lap and sticks her little nose in my face. How would I get her used to "sharing" attention? The world practically revolves around her (or so she thinks ) so I just do not know how she would handle it??

    I'm no expert, but I would say that introductions on neutral territory, keeping them separated but able to see each other at first, and taking it SLOWLY would be your best bet. If Sadie is well-socialized it shouldn't be terribly hard.

    Thank you Wolf_Q!
