The one problem I see with males is the dominance thing. Snickers was established as the dominant one early on (he's older), but Baxter now is challenging that and there have been some nasty 'dogfights'. Do females do this? |
Yes there is always a dominate female she just may not show it unless she is pushed to. Tasha is six months older than jersey so dominance was already established but on rare occasions she has been known to put jersey in her place. Tasha is my most layed back dog I have but she is also top dog among the dogs. They don't cross her often. Some females will fight and some won't. My mixed breed dog Comet is an outside dog and when I had my pit nikita she tried to dominate comet and she lost. Comet took her to the ground and dominance was established and nikita never tried again. Most not all the time the dominant female is usually the one that was there first..at least thats how it's been at my house. I'm sure others may have dif situations than mine. You won't have a problem with your female and male on that though. They should get along fine once they are used to each other.
