Last year I saved a dog from being euthanised and asked an animal shelter here to help find it a home. They found a home but after a few months the guy gave the dog away, and when we tried to check on the dog at its new home, the guy sent us to 5 different false addresses. At last, we have told him if he doesn't produce the dog this week, we will start legal proceedings as the shelter has a contract saying he cannot give the dog away without their inspecting the new home. Well, the shelter is expecting a batch of puppies and can't take the dog back, so I said I would keep him until we can find another home. He is a fox terrier mix -- actually much larger than a terrier -- and I am concerned about the safety of my cats, who enjoy our little enclosed yard where i will have to keep this dog. Any thoughts on how to introduce them safely? How will I know if it's safe to let them cohabitate?
