You need to establish yourself as the leader and put her back into her follower position.

1. Revoke furniture priveleges.
2. Feed on a schedule and make her sit/wait until you tell her she can eat.
3. If she wants something from you (walks, get petted, etc) make her do a command first.
4. Make sure all dogs are spayed/neuterd to eliminate aggression due to fluctuating hormones.
5. Walk them together EVERY day, which will help them bond.
6. If you see her go for the other dog, immediately intervene. I suggest getting an empty soda can and fill it with a few pebbles (no pennies or change!), close off the top and shake this a couple of times when she starts to go for the other dog.

What is triggering the aggression?? Food? Toys? Your attention? Nothing that you can tell?
Wow thats a great idea...useful tips for all of us...lll the leader of my pack is 3 yrs old and then I have a female 6months old and they fight but only becuase the 6mth wants to play and the 3 yr doesnt understand but its nothing like this.....As soon as I say No the 3 yr old wanders off...
