New Born Pup
Hi everyone!
I really need some advice We recently lost our most precious boy leaving our girl (3,5 years) on her own. We immediately went looking for a new friend for her and after a week we found a girl of 1,5 years. The initial bonding on neutral territory went great. Our older piggy immediately started grooming her and besides a bit of chin rubbing all went good. We are now three days later and noticed that the new piggy is constantly in one of the hideys and if she comes out she is often chased back into her hidey by our older piggy. I’m not sure if this is normal bonding behavior or a sign from our older piggy that she doesn’t accept the new piggy. I was wondering whether I should put them back in the playpen on neutral territory. The new piggy is eating hay and her veggies. Any advice is appreciated!
