Hi all , I am planning to adopt an indie mix dog. I am little worried as I have a Cat in my house . Can any of you please suggest me how to introduce them correctly. I have read introduce them “slowly” but could not get any further breakdown. Please help me with some suggestions.

Initially a new member should be kept in a separate room for a few weeks. As dogs and cats produce their own scent which they use for territory marking along with urination, it's hard for the older ones to accept the new ones. During this separation period, you can switch the bedding on alternate days so that they get used to each other’s scent. Get them toys separately and swap between them. Give them playtime for few hours together under your supervision. Give them feeding and water bowls separately.

During the playtime use treat to praise them and introduce them. Use commands.
