We have two dogs, Columbo who is a little over 2 years and jessie who is just over a year old. they have gotten along fine until recently. she has started to be very agressive towards him. he is submissive and lets her have the authority, but she still continues to attack him.
we are keeping them separated for now. we are getting spray bark collars for each, and a muzzle for jessie. does anyone have any advice for what else we could do to teach her not to be agressive towards other dogs?
both dogs are shepard mixes, and jessie has something else in her, perhaps chow, maybe even pitbull that makes her snap and with seemingly no trigger will attack the other dog. we adopted her so we dont know what else she is mixed with, it's just a guess that it's probably with some kind of agressive dog. it has steadily gotten worse, and the last time she actually cut him and was really fighting with him. we have a baby, so if she continues to be really agressive, we will probably have to find her a new home, but i would hate for that to happen. i want to know that i've tried everything i could think of before having to do that. any thoughts, let me know, and we'll give it a try.
