How do I properly introduce my pets to each other

Sure! Here are three different ways you could introduce your pets to each other:

**Take It Slow**: Start by letting them sniff each other through a closed door or a baby gate. This way, they can get used to each other's scent without direct contact. After a few days, you can do short, supervised meetings while keeping them on leashes. Gradually increase the time they spend together as they get more comfortable.

**Create a Neutral Space**: When you're ready for the big introduction, choose a neutral area where neither pet feels territorial. Bring them in separately and let them explore the space. Keep the first meeting short and positive, using treats and praise to reward calm behavior. If things go well, you can gradually let them interact more.
