Your dogs have formed a bond. Don't be jealous, celebrate it. The puppy truly needs the love and attention of an older dog. Consider, your puppy has left its mother and litter-mates, and your older dog is now providing much-needed security. This is very likely taking pressure off you in the early stages of raising a new puppy. Your older dog is taking responsibility for the pup and will teach it important things (such as toilet training!) and other matters which it knows are important to you as the pack-leader. Very soon both dogs will be your faithful friends; it's what dogs do. Meanwhile, enjoy the beautiful developing relationship.

Your 1 year pomapoo is ignoring you somewhat latly bescause of your attenion shared with a new 10 week old puppy How can you make the pomapoo care about you again?

Your pomapoo still loves you, he/she is just jealous, and possibly confused, not knowing what to expect with the new puppy there. You need to give the older one reassurance and positive reinforcement; this will train the older dog to associate the new one with good things, such as attention from you, treats, etc. Anytime you are holding or playing with the new puppy, be sure to pet the pomapoo and speak to him/her in a soothing and loving tone, and pet it at the same time. And be sure to also give the pomapoo plenty of one on one time with you also. You could buy a couple of new toys that you know the older dog will love, and give one to him/her while you are playing with the new dog. This will help reinforce in the older dog that having another dog in the house just may be a pretty good thing - more petting, treats, toy, etc. Then before long, they will likely be the best of friends. Just be sure to never give the older dog any kind of stern reprimand about anything in front of the new puppy until the older one has accepted the new one as a member of the 'pack'.
