Please let me know how it goes with your furbabies
In my non-expert opinion, I believe Izzy's age is the primary problem. She is still a puppy and probably trying to assert herself.

My younger boy is 11 months old and has been with us for 3 months now. He is asserting himself, challenging his older brother. I have to maintain a strong leadership role to maintain order. Don't let Izzy push Twilight around.
