No fights between my two. I can even feed them side by side and have been doing so ever since I brought Ripley home. They often eat out of the same bowl too, which totally amazes me since my last two poodles had to be separated to eat.

I think if Ripley had been here first he would have taken more of an Alpha role. As it stands now they are pretty evenly matched. When my granddog, Harlee, comes over and when her predecessor, Dale, came over Ripley would occasionally *show teeth* at them when he was on my lap and they would approach. I think he recognizes that Bella was here first and respects that. That, combined with her very loving/accepting personality, has made for a very good combination.
