What are the logistics of keeping a spayed bitch in the same yard as an intact dog? We've currently got a 9 mth rottweiler with one helluva pedigree, and he's not been desexed because we eventually plan to show him. We've got more than enough affection and time to spare for another dog, and our little guy would absolutely love the company, so we were thinking about adopting a (spayed) large breed girl from one of the animal shelters around here. Problem is, I don't want to be signing some poor unsuspecting female up for constant harassment that she can't deal with once those hormones really kick in for our boy. Has anyone had experience with this kind of situation? Our other option is to adopt another male, but we're a bit concerned about territorial behaviour, especially when one of them will still be intact. Everything I've read suggests that the male/female pairing is the best, but is it going to be in this case? I'd love to offer a happy home to a rescue dog, but am just not sure if it's going to be practical. Really appreciate any advice you guys can give!
