The participants:
Wilma-40 lb pitbull
Joxer-65 lb pit/boxer
Buford-95 lb mastiff/hound
Norbert-90 lb hound mix

It all started over a treat. :rolleyes: Buford and Wilma both went for it and it escalated into a full blown fight. I threw myself on Buford and tried to pin him, but then the other two dogs came over to see what was going on and just made it worse.

I'm still trying to control Buford and I'm screaming for my boyfriend who is in the shower and can't hear me. Buford is literally dragging me around the living room and he and Wilma are at each other. Joxer and Norbert weren't fighting, but Buford got a hold of poor Norbert and wouldn't let go. So I'm trying to pry Buford off Norbert and Wilma is still at Buford.

Finally Chris comes out of the bathroom and is able to grab Buford and I've got Wilma. Whew. I'm exhausted and shaking and bleeding everywhere. No one bit me but I'm bleeding everywhere from scratching my hands on dog teeth. Wilma bit clean threw Buford's ear. He's at the vet getting patched up. Joxer somehow got a scratch on his nose that required one stitch. :( Norbert luckily only had a couple of abrasions and he's fine. And Wilma, the smallest of the bunch hasn't a scratch on her!

And I'm exhausted!

I normally do feed them and treat them seperately, but this was something random that they found on the ground. :rolleyes: I'm still not sure what it was. Little buggers.

So true! But you should have seen him come tearing out of the bathroom butt a$$ naked and covered with soap! LOL Probably almost as much of a sight as me riding around a 95 pound dog trying to pin him.

He called it Wrestlemania 2003 in our living room. :D

Not to mention the "tazmanian devil" sounds coming from them!

I know how much it must have sucked, but I am cracking up picturing a woman riding a dog around the living room and a man running out naked to help her:D
Our dogs have had 2 major fights--both over treats--both my fault--Kito takes his time with anything he eats, and Abbey chomps everything down in a second.
I'm glad to hear everyone's ok, just some scratches and bruises!!

Too hysterical!! Glad you are OK, and that your "vicious" pitbull did not hurt you at all

Oh boy ......... hope the neighbours could not see that!!!

:eek:

No, my neighbors couldn't see, thank goodness! LOL Actually, Buford did a really good job NOT biting me.

I still can't believe that little stinker Wilma doesn't have a scratch on her!

Oh my!! I'm glad everyone is okay!

That must have been a scare for you. I had a few food aggressive fosters before and that stressed me out so bad. I'm lucky my guys don't have a problem with it. Just tonight my bad boy got RIGHT into Lolly's mouth and stole her treat because she was taking too long eating it :eek: :eek:

I had to laugh at the scene in your living room too. Too bad there wasn't a hidden cam. You probably could've won on Planet's Funniest Animals!!! :D

Thanks guys! I've got all the dogs tethered in seperate areas so they can get used to each other again. Tomorrow we'll re-introduce everybody and make sure we don't have a repeat.

I'm afraid I might have a problem with Norbert and Buford. Norbert was trying to lunge at Buford when we walked him by Buford. :rolleyes: I'll keep everyone updated.

Wilma I've had a year and a half. Joxer and Buford we've had about 8 months each and Norbert we've had 4 weeks. Here's a pic of our 3:
