Guest Anonymous Posted June 30, 2002 Posted June 30, 2002 They fight when ever they are near each other and especially when I take them for walks they Have seperate houses and food and water supply Nikki snap at my hand today when I attempted to pull them apart :x Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted June 30, 2002 Posted June 30, 2002 I dont think you should worry too much unless they are hurting eachother. My dalmations (mother and daughter) faught all the time, but didnt hurt eachother. I just let them go om because they are big dogs and could hurt you without realizing it Quote
Guest roo Posted July 1, 2002 Posted July 1, 2002 Keep them seperate, walk them seperate, Bitches are worse than dogs, when they hate, they can hate for life, Ignore candybugs "it's ok let them fight" attitude, it is not OK, you can't live with this sort of behavior, and they shouldnot have to either, let alone the damage they can do to each other and you.

Roo Roo, it's interesting that you should say that about the bitches fighting worse than the dogs. This is so very correct. Dominant males will do alot of posturing, tails up, ears up, chest bumping, name calling, staring, making faces, marking, a nip here and there, sucker punches, all the while trying to avoid an out and out fight. Until they are just so mad, the fight commences! Some males do bypass all the posturing and get right to the fight. Dominant females, hackles up, tails up --- they just get after it! Non of this playing around, name calling stuff --- just an out and out fight. A fight to the death, injury or disablement. They NEVER forgive and they NEVER forget. The first opportunity, even after being separated for days, weeks, months, or years, they will fight. Wolfman, you mentioned on the other post that one of the females nipped you as you were pulling them apart. This is called, "Redirected Aggression". In other words, she redirected her aggression toward you. Don't put yourself or her in a position like this in the future, if all possible. You could lose a finger. She has no respect for you and does not view you as alpha. You must become alpha and not let her take advantage of you. Behaviour as this should never be tolerated. Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted July 1, 2002 Posted July 1, 2002 I have heard that two females who are spayed are the worst of companions. I have often wondered what will happen when I spay my puppy and she gets to go play with her best friend Clar, who is an older spayed female... will they continue to play? Quote

You probably heard that two spayed females will not get along from a person that had a pair that just didn't like each other, or that were dominant females that wouldn't give an inch. If your pup and Clar are not in any competition, both are not dominant females, and they like each other --- they should continue to play through out life. Dogs (used to mean puppies and females) fight for various reasons. Spaying does not change the way a female feels about another female. Some females get along with others just fine (both spayed or intact). They are just like humans. Some dogs like some dogs and some they do not. Quote

Well said tic doc my thoughts exactly Roo Dogs (used to mean puppies and females) fight for various reasons. Spaying does not change the way a female feels about another female.
