Bonding help

Alicia

Mama Doe
After Izzy died this afternoon I tried pairing Beans with Angus as I was concerned that Beans would be lonely. Angus has humped Beans quite a lot and they’ve just had two fights although no skin was broken.
I really need some advice I’m not sure what to do for the best. I’ve neutralised the area, swept, mopped, sprayed everything and it was a small dog crate that I introduced them in. Do you think it would be better if I got Beans a female friend instead? I’m so stressed about this I was worried he’d be unhappy alone so that’s why I paired him with Angus quickly but I don’t know what to do for the best
 
I’m so sorry you lost Izzy :cry: sending hugs to you xx have you watched mischief and tinkers mum bonding video? It’s of a trio bond but I think it’s very useful. It’s very early days, and if you are stressed they will pick up on it. Do you have a truly neutral place to bond them?
 
I will watch that today. As they’ve already had 2 fights will it be harder? I don’t know what to do for the best
 
Going off what I have read of your situation I would put the bonding on hold and possibly consider getting a female friend for your bereaved boy. Sorry for your loss. xx
