Thanks. The article goes on to say that in most cases you support the senior dog. I think that's what I'm going to do although June is smaller. She is older and obviously not keen to give up her position. I've got to work with her to reinforce her dominance by putting Joni away when there's a fight, and giving June food and other valuables first. They're going to keep fighting until they've established who's the boss of whom.

By the end of the week I'll be walking them together and slowly reintroducing them to each other. I'll post the link to the article later (it's on my browser at work), but it gives detailed directions for reintroducing them safely after confinement. I must say, I can't take more than a week of this... It's terrible having to crate one of them all the time.
