    My older dog doesn't like puppies either. You know why? Puppy teeth. I'm entirely convinced she doesn't want those needle sharp puppy teeth sinking into her. I suggest you just respect your dog's wishes to stay away from the puppies while they have those teeth and are bouncy and jumpy and give him some time to get used to them. Also, put the puppies away and give him some time with the family by himself everyday.

    thanks for the info. I think you are right. Time will help the most. We are making sure Jack has lots of family time without the puppies.
