I think that's the best way to do it. But don't worry! The Pyr temperament
is great with small animals. My pyr and one of my cats are inseparable!
(Usually you will see Grace with Mikey sticking his head out between her
legs) They eat (that's a treat, both of 'em eating dog food) and sleep
together (although don't play). The other cat has decided he doesn't want
anything to do with the big dog so he stays outta reach.
It's my Corgi that's causes problems.
