In this episode, Andreia and Millie talk about how to handle pet introductions and why they should be handled with care and preparation. First impressions matter, just like with people, and they can influence how pets living in the same home interact with one another. They discuss in depth the best practices for making the introduction as smooth as possible. By planning in advance, you are much more likely to be able to build successful relationships in a household with multiple dogs. 

In this episode we discuss:
- Why walking your new dog and your resident dog together is so important
- How to manage your expectations towards your new dog and your current's dog relationship
- Why applying different rules and boundaries for your dogs is okay
- How to be honest with yourself regarding your relationship with your current dog
- When to allow play and how to practice turning it on and off
- How to control resources so they don't have to.
