Was thinking about getting a pup from my mate have a working lurcher already,the pup will be approx 8 weeks old and a bitch working lurcher is a dog, i was going to kennel pup straight outisde but put a small cage in kennel as dont have space to expand for first couple of weeks until they sorta get to know each other then relove it and hopefully they will kennel together keep each other warm etc any advice or critisim welcome just wanted to know if there was a better way to go about it thanks dm2011

Id not put them together,far to risky until you have an idea of how the adult dog will take to the pup,then there is the feeding scenario to contemplate.A pup will be a little boisterous and wish to do puppy things,many adult lurchers prefer quiet solitiude in their run and bed and will eventually get fed up of the nature of a pup and react in a manner that will either injure the pup or dominate it,thus having an adverse reaction on the pups development.

I wouldnt risk the pup getting harmed or worse sensrio killed by the adult dog mate.i used to have a bitch that wouldnt let anything in her kennel as if they even stuck there head in for a look she would go nuts.introduce them living together slowly mate by then the pup will be up abit in age and size atb

i wouldnt put him with a terrier mate they are highly strung and a with pup being a pup coupled with needle sharp teeth it could be a accident waiting to happen best to get his own space while he matures and quietens down abit and you get a idea how the others are in each others company but ideally i would kennel on there own accidents happen even with dogs that work side by side for years better safe than sorry

Sling them straight in together! They will sort things out, soon be keeping each other warm!

Or as what can often happen in these circumstances,the adult dog will be tucked up warm and comfortable and the youngster will be out in the cold shivering and miserable.
