Update on Freya

Just a short update on how the integration is going. It is now just over 4 weeks.

Freya still uses the conservatory as her safe base but rarely goes in there except to sleep at night.

We are still taking things slowly, ensuring Freya does not feel the need to bolt in panic and that Jack also feels comfortable around her. We do separate at key times, using stair gates -preparing for a walk, meal times and enrichment times.

Freya is so much more settled and immediately heads for the sofa after her walk and breakfast.


She loves to run in the garden and has excellent recall there already. The next step will be recall with distractions. Lead walking is excellent on the way out but still some pulling to get home as we get closer.


Freya and Jack pretty much ignore each other most of the time with the occasional greeting/tail wags/sniffing each other.


We keep everything calm, manage resources such as food and toys and sleeping areas to ensure none of the dogs feel they need to guard a resource.
