They can and do change their positions in the pack. Which is why the fights, to establish the hiarchy of the pack, and the aggressor will remove any that appear to be competion for him/her. |
That is so interesting... I used to keep everyone seperated .. I've gotten kind of lax ... I think I'll start up again.
I've had one almost kill the other.. thank God we were there to break it up.
Thankyou for you're post.
