| Jade,
We dont have a 2nd dog of our own, but my boyfriends mother has a 6 yr old female Rott mix, and a 2yr yellow lab. We introduced our Sammy to them at 9weeks. The rott mix exhibited the same behavior as your girl. they would chase a little, the little guy would stop and submissively sit, when the female growled or seemed tense. It seemed more of a mother/child type thing, the way the pup acted. She pounced, but never injured him in any way. It has been 3 weeks and we spent alot of time there, (we go to swim and visit quite frequently as they have a pool and 25 acres for Sammy to play on.) and both females are quite comfortable, He has stayed overnite a few times, and we have had no problems. It was the same when we introduced him to his two cats also. It will work out.
Good Luck,
MJ
