Question

Answer
It's very hard to say without seeing their behavior exactly what you should do. I would recommend that you consult a local trainer that can come to your house and help you out. In the meantime, I would not let the older dogs be loose when you have the puppy out. Either crate them or put them in another room where they can still see him but cannot get to him to hurt him. He is too young to take out for walks, or I would recommend that you take him for walks with each of the older dogs separately every day so they can get used to him. Being that he hasn't had all his shots, though, that would not be advisable.
