Bones don't usually cause any trouble around here. They get lots of them from Uncle Randy, the wild game butcher. Founder had tried to bring a bone in the house about half an hour before all H**L broke loose. That's why I think he was protecting his bone. He wants to take over Muskwa's job as alpha male; that's caused the bullying; but I don't think Founder is truly an Alpha dog. He's not going to be now, cuz he's getting moved into a different area!
GONE for 6 MONTHS!? :eek:Quote:

Not really a punishment for Founder. Three days at the vet has probably been punishment enough! He will need to be on his own for a bit to heal up and then I'm going to keep him in a different pen just to reduce the chances of another big fight anytime soon! Just about everyone is getting moved. I'm going to break up the main pack for awhile. The only way to completely eliminate the chances of another fight would be to tether everyone, but I'm not willing to do that. The new accomodations should keep things calmer...*knock on wood*
I got to see Founder yesterday and he was vastly improved over when I left him on Saturday night, so I"m feeling much better. Will be even better once I get him home tonight. Even with 23 dogs at home, his absence is obvious.
Good GRIEF! http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/rolleyes.gifQuote:

The difference this time will be I will be able to contact him, not easily, but there will be a way and now I've lived here long enough that I have a list of people I could call if I really need help...got a computer tech buddy, a mechanic friend, a handyman, a wood guy, a well repair guy..... Can't find a house/critter sitter ever though so I guess my nieces will have to come to me this summer!
Yup, she's in Ireland. I expect one of them will be immigrating soon, although they haven't told us which way they are leaning on that!
