Pet Forum / Mammals / Rabbits / July 2008A Puggle & Bunnies
We were thinking of getting Nicholas a puppy in the spring. I have my heart set on a puggle. I was wondering how everyone elses experiences have been introducing a puppy to rabbits. Sharkey was in a home with dogs and I'm sure could care less. Boo Boo is up on the dog crate and I don't think he would be fazed, but I'm worried what Louise and Hershey may do. Hershey stayed in his cage for over 2 weeks when we moved. Would I have to block the puppy off from the living room when the buns are caged still? So much to think about, I'd really appreciate some input from those of you who've experienced a new puppy addition. Thanks. Lisa, Hershey, Boo Boo, Louise & Sharkey (Thelma, Wendy & Cartman FTB) Lisa, at my job there are three dogs, one of which is a two year ol puggle. I sometimes have to walk him or do other things for him,he is hal pug, half beagle and he does howl when left alone, some sort of anxiet over separation, very social dog and doesn't know any strangers. He i very friendly and somewhat clumsy and from research I did on his breed fo his owner, my boss, it says that they are very good with other species o animals, but he is clumsy and jumps on people. Don't know if that kin would be gentle with buns, even if they didn't mean to be. Just because o their size. I have a picture I could send you of him. He is very loving an doesn't seem to bark at squirrels, or other small types, so maybe. Carl Liza and Jodie.

ML Lisa, my "little puppy" (who weighed in today at *only* 130 pounds--I think his shorn fur must weigh the other 10 pounds I was expecting) would never ever hurt a bunny. BUT... three of the four bunnies I have had did not believe me when I told them that. Tibs never had a problem, and somewhere I have a picture of her nose to nose with Todd, both with what-the-heck-are-you looks on their faces. The others were all very frightened of Todd's proximity, whether they actually caught sight of him or not. Perhaps if I had made more of an effort to socialize the others with him it would have worked, but I have always had to keep doggie and bunnies separate. That's my experience... :( Michele, Christopher Grouchy Bunny, and Todd Itchy Dog (darned summer allergies...) > We were thinking of getting Nicholas a puppy in the spring.

Thanks for the advice everyone. We took the plunge! So my Roscoe post. Lisa, Hershey, Boo Boo, Louise & Sharkey (Thelma, Wendy & Cartman FTB) |
