I have five dogs. Sadie is a seventeen year old female. Bailey is a five year old female and Lily is a year. Gus is three and buster is five. Heres my problem. Sadie has always been the most dominant dog in the household. If one of the boys fought, Sadie would break it up. Every dog would respect her. They kept there distance when she walked by, if she came to the food bowl everyone would scatter and alow her to eat first. No one even fought with her... Untill now. After I got Lily it seems that the females are all fight and no love! If Sadie and Bailey are in the same room togeather, Bailey will lterally LEAP onto sadies back and go for her throat. Lily will then jump in, grab Bailey by the neck and pull her off of Sadie. It's almost like she's protecting Sadie. The boys never fight, Lily only fights when Sadie and Bailey are at it and all Lily does is get Bailey off of Sadie. It's crazy! Whenever all five dogs are in the house togeather I have to be on guard and its like i'm anicipating the next attack. I'm scared to leave for work in the morning because I know that if Bailey somehow gets out of her crate she will kill Sadie, unless Lily gets there in the right time and pulls her off.
Its all fight and no love in my house any more.
If you have any ideas on whats causing this or how I can stop this. All help is appreciated!
