hi all
I have 3 staffies 2 bitches & a male , 1 bitch is 7 the other is 1 and my male is 4 , the 2 bitches have just started fighting they have had 2 fights now in the last 2 months , im not sure which one starts it but it seems to start for no reason , I have been to the vets for advice and they have said to get the 1 year old neutered as the 7 year old one has been done and this could be the problem ,which we have booked her in for this Friday , but they have also said that there is no guarantee that this will help , I have the 2 bitches separated at the min as I am scared to death they are going to fight again as when they see each other they are growling still any advice would be so welcome
thank you cathy

Hi and welcome from me and daisy Big Grin 

Daisy does seem to get into fights with with my families dogs from time to time, they spend quite a lot of time togeather. Generally it's over food or toys. Could that have been a trigger? If so I would only leave stuff like that down when you are around.

Hi from me and the boys

I have 2 dogs, but they haven't faught.

But could the intact bitch be coming in to season? that can send bitches a bit funny. Have you looked for an indicator in the fights, any food, toys or treats about?

How much exercise do you give the 3 of them? perhaps try walking them more, so they are more tired in the house.

Hello and welcome to the forum from me and the kids Smile

As above Cathy are their any toys or food involved ?? Have you had all 3 since pups or for a reasonably long time ?? If the youngest girl is coming into season then it could be a trigger but as you say for the last 2 months and just about to neuter I'm guessing the season has been and gone

hi all
the fights seem to be over nothing not food or toys , ive had them all from pups and until now the 2 bitches got on fine they would even snuggle up together the 1 year old had her season over a month ago , im just praying that having her neutered is going to work , I will try anything that may help
