New puppy, old cat advice please?

My new puppy is 2 mos old, I also have a cat who is over a year old and grew up with a senior dog prior to this. The puppy likes to chase her. She doesn't understand what ';no'; means. At first, if I just chided her a little, she'd whimper, but all of a sudden it doesn't phase her. I tried shouting ';no'; and hitting the floor as I said it, but she has no reaction just keeps chasing the cat and going off to play. How do you teach a dog no? And how can I get the dog and cat to be friends or at least the dog allowing the cat to walk around like she's used to without getting chased. I'll grab the puppy but my cat still takes off in hiding.New puppy, old cat advice please?
ok well these problems are expected, but i totally understand. why dont you try a squirt bottle, and when the dog is after the cat squirt them in the face or on the butt, they hate either!New puppy, old cat advice please?
fill a medal can with rice or beans and put plastic wrap over the top and shake it hard when the he chases the cat or maybe even throw it by him but be careful not to hit him
I would get rid of the puppy. Cats are great pets and dogs are not. The cat was there first and it is his home. Cats rule and dogs drool. Get a second cat for your cat to play with and enjoy. 2 cats are fabulous together!!
you might need to make a high pitched *ah ah* sound, if the dog stops, reward her by saying good girl and petting her, if she doesn't, repeat the sound. If that sound doesn't work, clang to lids together. this will get the dogs attention. but keep in mind that this will scare the dog. if she comes to you, do not look her in the eye, this will associate fear and you as the same thing. If you need anymore help, you can watch Animal Planet's ';It's Me Or The Dog.'; Or go to animalplanet.com Good luck.
These things happen.





Keep them separated for now and reward the puppy when it walks by the room or area, in which the cat is residing, without lunging at kitty. I would walk the puppy through the house on his lease until he understands that chasing is not o.k.





Give the kitty time to go to the dog. Don't force your cat. I have a 2 year old lab and a 9 year old calico cat. It took the cat a whole year to even go into the same room with the dog. Now she spends every night in the same room with the dog and relentlessly teases him in his crate at night. They aren't best buddies, but I think once dog boy calms down she will go to him and snuggle.





Cats are so independent that they could care less about the dogs.
