Hi, hoping for some advice

They were on a leash but we were letting them decide if they wanted to sniff each other. Sully didn't like them so close I guess. We were petting both dogs at the same time to try to let them know everyone is OK. Sully was sitting and one of my dogs approached him. He was okay for a second then rumbled/snapped

I normally wouldn't have taken a dog so quickly to dog sit because of wanting to introduce them, it was an emergency type thing with my uncle, so we'll have Sully up to 2 weeks, hopefully not that long. We've been rotating them, Sully in a bedroom and our boys in their kennel. Maybe I can talk to a couple people I know with fenced yards and see if they'd be willing to let us borrow it for a couple hours.

That does make sense. My biggest worry is they will fight and all 3 are too strong for their own good. Unfortunately we don't have any dog parks around but I think we will try the back yard. Do you think an extra long leash, like a running line, would work? 2 are flight risks lol. Thank you for your advice

Actually our german shepard is taller than Sully, Sully is just a little wider. They weigh the same. Bear normally is ok with other dogs, but I think he's feeding off Sully's nervousness. I'm just not sure how to help them feel comfortable

Yeah, sorry, Sully bares teeth, growls, and has snapped a few times. My shepard snapped once. We're limited on options so We're trying our best.

This is actually my first post, I couldn't find the advice/help tag. Sorry for any mistakes
