Never, sorry , an epileptic peke can never be trusted, and any kind of stress will send him into a seizure, what kind of seizure meds is he on?

or anyway to

No, it is best to keep them seperated.

also the new peke refuses to walk

If you are referring to the epileptic peke, then just letting him loose in his own yard is exercise enough, the stress of too long a walk or fighing to get him to walk is not good for him. To teach a peke to walk on lead it is easiest to use bait, coax him to take a few steps forward the reward with a very TINY treat, have alot of patience and soon he will learn walking is fun and rewarding.
