I temporarily caged the other dog, and if i let her out again, will my other dog bite her again?>>>>>>>
Did the dogs break skin and how bad was
the fight?
Dogs have a memory like an elephant,
they forgive but do not forget.
It depends on how bad the fight was.
I have heard different theorys on separating.
My male's breeder always told me
that if I want my dogs to live in harmony
than remove anything tempting
that they might fight over.
IF they do fight than do not separate them but have them lay down in the same room as me under a watchfull eye. If they so much as rumble than swiftly
correct them. She also suggested that I separate them when I am not home. I have not had to do this.
Another theory which I choose not to
use.
A trainer once told me to let the dogs
at it (using muzzles), and once a top dog has been
established again there should be no problems. (I chose not to use this method)
But I do let my female repremand my male
and I will not interfer.)
A woman who works in Akita rescue who
lives with multiple Akitas,
told me to remove anything possible
that a dog might fight over and not
to allow them to fight.
That if a serious fight was to developed
it could work 2 ways. 1) A pecking order
could be re-established. 2) the above could back fire and cause serious enjury to the dogs and they would have to be separated
the rest of thier lives.
If your dogs have had a drag out fight,
you probably should separate them when you are not home to be on the safe side.
