| A Bad Situation. I need help, for the past 3 months Jezebel and Olivia have been fighting! I don't mean playful fighting, I'm talking about fighting to kill. I has gotten so bad that I am afraid to leave them alone. It seems to be Olivia (the younger of the two) starting the majority of the fights. She "gards" me from Jezebel a lot, and we Jezebel comes near they go at it. I do not take sides, nor has either been punished for this behavior. I have just been immediately separating them and within a few minutes they are BFF again. Can anyone tell me how to stop this behavior. I do not want one of my girls getting hurt and I hate when they don't get along!

| My 2yo girls do this on occasion, more than I would like. My original girl is insecure and the second one is bold (acting). When we got the second she was very aggressive and would attack my original pup (origi-pup). We of course put a stop to that. Now a year later they will both go at it. I think the origi-pup has had her fill of the other's bossy ways and now will strike, sometimes first. Of course we stop, put them both down on their backs until I see them relax. Not everyone agrees with this but it is what we do anyway.

| Thanks for the input! I just wish I could make them stop fighting for good because it's becoming more frequent.
