| Rehoming due to fighting I think thats the best thing to do, rehome due to the fighting with Roxy, at least she is going to a loving home, a one-one which is wat im going to do with Maisey when she has had her litter of pups. She is a great mum with Marnie's 9 week old little boy who leaves f or his new home in a few days, and was great and mothered Marnies pups. It will break my heart to let her go, but i cant bear to see them fighting. I go to work partime and they must get on great when im not around. As soon as i walk in the door Maisaey starts barking her head off at Marnie, so its definiatately a power battle for my attention. Will find her a good home, no other dogs and she will get all the love and cuddles she deserves, even though i give the same attenton to all my dogs. Its a very sad situation this. |

| <hugs all around> My two are getting really sneaky about attacking each other. One will charge through the gate when you just get it cracked open and this week has been hell. New strategy. Hold one while the other one gets switched to the other room before letting the second one down. One is preggers, but they both want to be queen bee. I truly feel for anyone who has to go through this.

| I had posted in another thread about my girls. I have a Mini Daschund and then there's my Yorkie, Tiffie. This past weekend we had a knock down drag out between the girls. Dutchess (my dauschund) has been spayed. We are contemplating breeding Tiffie so we have not gotten her spaid. She follows Dutchess around, looking at her with her tail out and ears perked up and starts shaking. Dutchess tries to ignore her most of the time but every once and a while, gets fed up with it and comes back at her. Saturday, my daughter came inside from the backyard crying that Tiffie was bleeding and that Dutchess had her by the ear. My fiance and I ran out of the house and he picked up Dutchess. We finally got the two apart and saw that Tiff just had a little scratch on her ear that was bleeding and was limping on her front right leg. I washed her up and immediately got out the crates. From bathing Tiff I could feel the wet spot where Dutchess had her by the neck as did I feel where Tiff had Dutchess as well. Although everyone turned out okl in the end and I hate to be in the position of having to crate my girls but I'd hate to have one kill the other. My mom, who breeds Afghan Hounds, recently had an incident where two of her boys went at eachother and one punctered the others windpipe and he unfortunately did not pull through. |

| I can't imagine this kind of behavior from a little, cute, tiny, can do no wrong YORKIE!!!! I want to add another pup in the summer for my Dudley, He'll be a year old and is fixed. Would a female be better or another male (he'll be fixed too). Oh if i got a female, she would be fixed as well.....what's best for this situation?

| this is interesting subject. My dogs have moody days and fight...i watched dog whisperer... Seemed like my yorkie was trying to alpha and was snatching treats that werent meant for her right out of my hand and did it aggressively. She was tripping me when I was walking too. Jumping to be first at everything. Overly assertive! Just was not a pleasure to be around & acted jealous. I decided to show her who was boss and I never ever give her a treat first anymore. I make her wait patiently for everything. Any sign of aggression-I put her outside and separate her from everyone and everything. When I hear sweet whinning and begging to come back in--that makes me think her mood has changed and she realizes she's at my mercy for everything & I am in charge. I let her in and she waits patiently for her treat. This seems to have worked..kind of like rules doing math problems--order of operations. I did that with everything--combing, bath time, food time--all of it. She's really sweet and knows she'll have her turn and being assertive and aggressive wont be tolerated. What works for me might not work for you, but then again-it just might! |
