Could use some serious advice. Fighting

[horsnaround]

We would never been able to let ours work it out as one would have been badly injured . I just wish now that they have been apart so long they could be together for a few days. But it's not going to happen. I do believe you will get this worked out. Please keep us updated on what seems to work best. Love this site as we always are learning

Haha. Point taken. Guess I've heard and read too many statements beginning with "Cesar says....." .

This is such an excellant thread with such good advice I wanted to update...
With ever so much vigilance on my part to be moniter, guide, enforce,reinforce and BE there at the same time for both IS paying off. Developing trust and a loving relationship between us all everyday , I am seeing my 2 girls flourish!
Yes it does take time but they now play together soooo well. Never a snap or posture any more! Training obedience at the same time helps too...If the baby is too much action for the zoey we rescue her and divert giving her a break....
The time and thought you all put into educating us is MUCH appreciated! And
Has become a part of my life. It's nice to know we ARE all connected , in the love for our pets....
Thank you!

Glad to hear it. It is possible to correct most fighting dogs once they realize a kind, gentle but iron spirit known at Mom or Dad means to monitor them and enforce boundaries as well as offer them a satisfying dog's life; and after a time, if both are healthy, well-trained on a regular basis, have busy, interesting, fulfilling lives, they adjust and begin to police themselves and learn how to co-exist peacefully, knowing Mom/Dad is watching and will step in.

But very often, dogs who are missing a part of that equation in their lives - are old, ill/in pain, anxious, bored silly, unchallenged mentally, underexercised, undertrained or under-monitored, begin to pick fights that eventually lead to all-out bloody brawls.
