I've never had this situation, but I would say it's not normal. I've only had 2 of my girls fight and it's never gotten anywhere near that vicious. And killing puppies???
I would absolutely not allow this fighting to happen, especially with a pregnant girl. You've obviously got a complex issue and a dangerous one at that. In your shoes, my first priority would be the safety of my pregnant girl and her pups. The whys of it all would be secondary.
You mention that Calypso is otherwise shy and timid. Yet she fights with a pregnant dog and has killed her pups. I have to wonder if a dog with that temperament should be breeding as temperament is genetic and will be passed on.
Whether or not can come to an ideal solution or not, you have to provide for your girl and her pups safety. That is priority #1. |
