Hi everyone!!
Although i do not have a dog living with me, i make trips now and then down to my parents house and i bring my little bun with me of course! We set up a nice room for her, and she does great on the car ride, and falls back into her normal routine pretty quickly. My parents have 3 shih-tzus, one of them is mine! She is gentle, never barks, blind, and just the sweetest dog ever.
I have really only let my dog in (not the other two), because i know she's completely harmless, and Molly, my bun, doesn't seem to mind. Last time, Molly even went up to my dog Peanut after a bit, nose to nose, and then hopped away.
How do you guys have your bunny become comfortable with your other pets? Is there some specific strategy, or is it just slow time and patience?
I'd like to one day not have to keep my little bun in that room, and have her wander around (after bunny proofing of course) the house. I'd really love to see her run around and binky and consider it a familiar second-home.
I've seen lots of bunny and dog/cat combos! So i know it can be done!
btw, my bunny is not spayed yet, idk if that matters, but my dogs are all fixed of course.
