Hi. I'm pretty new to multiple dogs. I've always only had 1 at a time until this past summer. It's been interesting! And still is!  I can't give you many pointers but with my guys, I used to keep them separated from each other for part of the day (& supervised). If they had real issues I'd step in when I felt it was getting out of hand or really annoying. I would also let them figure it out & deal with each others nuisances, when they were little things.
They get along better now then in the beginning but they def have their 'not so nice' moments too. especially my older one, he gets easily irked by the younger one. But they are opposite sex which helps! Are yours the same sex?

A rolled up newspaper can be an effective training tool when used properly. For instance, use the rolled-up newspaper if your dog chews up something inappropriate or has a housebreaking accident. Bring the dog over to the destroyed object (or mess), then take the rolled-up newspaper and hit yourself over the head as you repeat the phrase,"I FORGOT TO WATCH MY DOG, I FORGOT TO WATCH MY DOG!"
