| ![]() Are they all spayed/neutered? I would recommend separating Rose with an xpen or baby gate at meal times and when you cannot supervise.

| ![]() Hopefully it is a phase, but stay on top of it. Food and treat guarding can be a big problem, can cause fights. My boys do not guard their food, but there is particular kind of chew treat that they would definitely fight over given the chance.

| ![]() No fights today 🎉🎉 I fed one while the other one was distracted And didn't share bites of my food with them I'm hoping another few days without fighting and Rose will forget all about this phase! |

| ![]() Can I ask if all three of them are fed at the same time? Maybe Rose is trying to establish dominance? What would happen if you fed the other two first and sat with Rose to watch them eat first? While training her to stay? Maybe sit with her and watch them eat while giving her a back rub? Or...do you free feed? Then my suggestion wouldn't work ![]() Or maybe the question is, is she aggressive only when others eat, when she's eating, or when everyone is eating? lol
