Have someone take the Shepperd out and exercise it ALOT.Then get all three dogs to a dog park or open area nearby. Introduce the sheppard to each dog separately on leash, giving them time to sniff, lick, whatever. THEN release them and allow some supervised play time. Trust me, you're better off doing the first intro on neutral ground. When done at home, the dog who feels the home is his territory will react differently because in his mind he has a job: It's to try harder to assert dominance so the other dog knows who's house it is and that they need to submit to be accepted. Dogs meeting on neutral territory are free of such obligations and will often have an easier time accepting eachother.</blockquote>
