If anyone remembers last time we tried the carrier method for bonding but Juno was too aggressive to even put them in together let alone go for a walk with them. Today they had half an hour together in the hallway and armed with a spray bottle I pretty much followed them everywhere.
Both were washing and binkying but the problem keeps occuring when they end up face to face and Juno becomes scared and 75% of the time digs and nips at Marleys head, Marley will retaliate but won't start a squabble.
They are living side by side currently and I think they really are the type that will benefit from a slow bonding, I feel more hopeful after today but it isn't love at first sight by any means.
I do have plan B which is to try Juno with the very submissive Fiver after his dental if things are not progressing between her and Marley, as unlike Marley, Fiver will not fight back.
I'm not really a fan of slow bonding by any means but wondered if some people have found a tricky pairing successful using his method?
