Now it has developed problems with other dogs and she came on here asking for help and if this was normal. I have to say I was very impressed by the members at the beginning of this thread who answered the questions and tried to help with solutions.

I am not at all impressed with some of the members at the end of the thread.

She is a very loving pet owner with a very real problem that can and does happen sometimes with dogs. Dogs by nature have alpha males and females and when you have two competing alphas you get problems. As for the cane to separate dogs if you have never seen to dogs lock on each other you can not possibly understand how difficult it is to separate them, without two people and leather gloves handy it can be next to impossible. You have no idea how horrible it is to see your babies attacking each other and being unable to get them apart, you would do whatever it took if faced with the same situation. With bigger dogs you risk serious personal injury stepping into a fight.

And I have to say that I'm not very impressed with you. Not at all.

"Skin and bones" is not merely skinny. You have no problems with taking in an abused, ill, starved and terrified animal and immediately subjecting it to pregnancy? You consider that spoiling 'it'? Really? If so, I'd love to hear how you spoil yours.

Many of us have separated fighting dogs but have never used a cane to the point of making them being sore, subdued and timid the next morning as the op has said she's done.. That is beating - not separating!!

I have read your words over and over and still cannot believe that anyone would try to justify or defend this woman. Obviously money is power. And your poor puppies are bringing in the money for you.
