In this episode we cover best practices for dog dog interactions taking into consideration best way to set up the engagement from the dogs point of view. The best we can do is try to set up the first “meeting date” so its a success starting with smell first.  I’ll walk you through how to prepare for a meet up and steps during the meet up.  While we cannot control how the dogs will feel about each other we can work on some positive associations before they even meet!
