slow bonding

How can i do a 'slow bond?'
I need to keep poppets stress levels minimul so her snuffles doesnt flare up again..
shes showing very obvious signs she needs a friend, but we cant risk a normal bond as the stress of it could cause a flare up :cry:
 
I do this for Dave's group. Just a few hours in the evening together to start with and then gradually build up the length of time they stay together over a period of weeks until they get to a point where they can be together and then separate at night. Do that for a week or so and then its full time.

each bond is different so i just play it by ear as to how long they should be left together each time and how quickly it moves forward :wave:

what sort of space would you use for this?
do you still use neutrel ground?
so sorry for being a pain i want it all to be perfect :love:
 
Yes I use neutral space. With dave's lot i don't stick to the rules and usually let them free range in a room or out in the garden as they need space, but that might not work for other buns. After i have built up time in a neutral space I gradually introduce time in their usual home
