K, here's the thing, i have 4 dogs, a lab, a st.Bernard Mix, a australian shepard, and a golden retriever. My oldest the lab just turned one. I also have 2 hamsters, 2 guinea pigs, and a bird. Is there any good way to introduce my iggys to the rest of the family, or is it best to keep them seperate. Any advice would help.
Thanks

For now while they're still small...they will see everything as predators wanting to eat them. You can take the igs and while you hold them, let them observe the other animals in the house and what they do on just a routine basis. By the time they get big enough for some introductions they will already know the animals. The larger dogs will be able to kill even a full grown ig...so until you KNOW what the dogs are going to do...you may want to make it separate free-raom times and put the dogs outdoors.
I have a lot of animals...and even the big dogs move out of the way for a 4'+ lizard...they even did so at 3'. Just make sure it's always supervised once you get to that point.
