ok, again i have 2 dogs Sugar (w/c I got earlier) and Coleen.
they dont have problem,i guess, when they're young.
when Sugar menstruate, she became aggressive to Coleen only in one instance. It is when I hold Coleen on a leash and we go near her.
What I do now to ease the tension is I hold Coleen and we go near her. Sugar will bark in excitement/jealousy. I'll let her sniff Coleen's back while preventing Coleen from looking. Coleen's tail is tucked between her legs. Tension escalates when Coleen face her and they had a staredown. When this happens, I immediately take Coleen away.
Am I doing it right? I am thinking they're fighting for my ATTENTION because they dont fight when they play off-leash at the park without my presence. Or are they fighting for dominance? Or both?
Sugar always starts the fight.
Thank you!
