All is well in the world. They are both great friends now. Thanks for the encouraging words... Here are some pics.

Hi all, As you'd expect, all is well. They are sorting themselves out. Spencer is asserting hims dominance. They are alternately initiating play and getting the measure of each other. Thanks for all your wise counsel. Pics soon...

Hi wise people, Bella, our 8week old cocker puppy loves to follow our 3yo cocker male around (as expected). He just "runs for the hills" and appears constantly vigilant and anxious whenever she is out of her crate. I expected him to exercise a bit of alpha dominance and tell her to buzz off rather than being a scaredy dog! He is normally a boisterous happy dog, but not when she is around. We introduced them on neutral territory and are actively providing attention to them both, feeding him first etc. Suggestions, comments...?
