Are Turkish Van cats good with dogs?

Yes, Turkish Vans are often good with dogs, thanks to their confident and social nature. Their playful and energetic personality can match well with a friendly and gentle dog. 

However, safe and slow introductions are still key to building a positive relationship between them. Start with a scent introduction by letting them sniff each other’s bedding or toys before meeting face-to-face. Once they’re used to each other’s scent, keep the first few interactions short and supervised, with the pup on a leash if needed, to ensure both pets feel safe. 

Gradually increase their time together, always providing plenty of praise and positive reinforcement when they interact calmly. With patience and proper introductions, Turkish Vans can develop strong bonds with their canine counterparts.
