Sometimes a spray bottle of water or a running
water hose will help, if they are convenient. I have stopped cat fights and dog
fights that way. I don't mean use hot water. I just use room temp or whatever is
in the hose:)
Of
course it may not always work, but both cats & dogs don't like getting
sprayed:)
Best

I guess this would work but it's kind of
like throwing a child in a creek & telling them to swim..and set there
watching them struggle. If the attacking animal is much bigger then the other
animal , I'd think it might shake the one to death when it grabs it by the
neck. However, I've always been told, even by the animal lovers in the various
animal societies..to never step in between fighting dogs. I once grabbed my
cat who was about to attack another cat & ended up in the ER from all the
bites & scratches. I should have thrown a blanket over her 1st.

The dogs had there first big fight today. I had given them
each a treat. Bailey ate her's, and went after Sheba's. Well,
Sheba attacked her. Grabbed her by the neck and started to beat the
crap out of her. Thank goodness hubby was home. He told me to
leave them alone as Bailey had to learn that Sheba was the boss. So, I
just stood there and cried. Bailey was so scared and has been
following me around the house ever since. I've never had 2 dogs at a
time, so I don't know how to handle this.
Well, I got
some 16" dolls and outfits today, so that made me feel better.
LOL!!

Crackers was no problem and Milo was great after 1 week or so but Rascal's
been a real challenge, lemme tell ya. He's almost perfect now though so hang
in there and Bailey will get it too. Good luck, Jan!/smaller>/fontfamily>

I'm having a terrible time training Bailey. Just
went upstairs and she had pooped in the family room. We usually have
it closed off so she can't get up there. Somehow we forgot to put the
gate back up. Good thing I love this little
dog.
