Foster Dog Meets Resident Dog: How to Set Everyone Up for Success with Elisheba Fay

Bringing a new foster or adopted dog into your home is exciting—but when you already have a resident dog, the introduction process requires careful planning. In this episode, we chat with behavior consultant and friend of the pod Elisheba Fay, and dive into strategies for setting both dogs up for success, especially when working with foster or rescue dogs whose histories may be unknown.

We cover what to consider before bringing a new dog home, how to evaluate whether your current pet is ready for a new companion, and how to avoid common pitfalls during introductions.

Whether you're fostering, adopting, or just thinking about adding a second dog to your pack, this episode will help you approach multi-dog households with confidence and compassion.

🐶 In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • What skills your resident dog needs before bringing home a new dog
  • How to set up your home for a new foster dog
  • Why it’s important to go slow when introducing a new dog—even if your dog is friendly!
  • What’s normal and what’s not normal when integrating new dogs
