So brought home a puppy 4 days ago and my 4 year old is scared of him. The first introduction went well as he sniffed the 8 week old male. Although every time the puppy comes near him he runs away. if the puppy touches him he jumps like he was poked by a hot poker. He lets out a few growls but his tales wags and he has not done anything aggressive.
So what I need to know is if I should just leave them be and wait it out or should I force them to interact more ?
I feel bad for both dogs. The puppy follows him around and wants to play. And the older dog just looks uncomfortable now.
