Hi everyone,
My fiance and I have a 1 1/2 y/o girl named Lola, who we have had since she was 8 weeks. She is spayed, has undergone obedience training, and I took her to doggy day care the first year of her life. Recently, my mother's friends have had to move due to jobs and can't take their youngest, a 2 y/o pitbull girl (who they have had since puppyhood and is also spayed). They have another 4 y/o pit girl, a 5 y/o rescue pit boy, and a 7 y/o German Shepard boy. They are moving to a place with a pibull ordinance so are looking to give their youngest girl a fabulous home.

We would like to open up our home to this girl.

I have read a ton of horror stories about girl dogs living together, especially pit girls. I know I won't know anything until they meet (in a neutral place, outside our home) but I am still nervous. I am looking to get my nerves out of the way now so I won't be nervous when they meet, as that will nerve them as well.

Lola has become dominant lately and I pulled her out of daycare because she was not wanting to play with so many dogs and would get into spats.

Any advice would be very much appreciated!
