I know some of you did not agree with some of the events that took place with my move to FL but we are in need of some big help.
We are having some major fighting issues the last 2 weeks. Its not coming from either of my two. Its the other dog in the house Cocoa.
Since moving in with my fiance Oct 20th things went fine. The last 2 weeks we have had fights breaking out between Cocoa and Dakota. Until today they were just growling and barking. Today we had 3 fights in 2 and a half hours. the first time today Dakota tried to go into the bedroom that Cocoa eats and sleeps in (shes a free feed doggie). We have been trying to keep the doors to her bedroom and our bedroom closed and each other out of the others room. the other two times today I was standing right there and Dakota did nothing to give Cocoa the right to start a fight. The last of the 3 fights I grabbed Dakotas collar and was taking her down the hall way to put her in our bedroom when Cocoa lunged at Dakota and grabbed her ear and was bitting Dakota. over the holidays out of the 3 other people who live here I was only alone by myself a few hours a day if at all. Starting Wed. I will be alone all day and I know there is no way I can have them out all day together by myself. It is unfair to any of the dogs or me to have to lock any or everyone up for extended periods of time. For now thats the way its got to be because I can't break up the fights myself. By breaking them up I do not mean by putting myself in the middle of them. I use a loud and as firm as I can voice.
I can not pin point what its causing the fights I have tried. I really don't want any one hurt. dogs or humans. What can we do to stop this fighting?
