Well just about the time I think things are going in one direction it changes! Last week Buddy refused to come inside at night 2nd night it stormed during the night and he sure wanted in then!
How long does it take for the dogs to decide who is alpha? Cause I'm not sure what is going on. Sunday Abby was really picking on Buddy & he would do nothing except run to into the house by the doggie door when he could get Abby away! Then by evening Buddy seemed to have taken enough and he would grab Abby around the neck and put her down. It seems like Buddy just puts up with it for so long & then gets back at her. This has gone on all week. I don't want them to hurt each other. I have heard yelping a few times.
My husband got home & Buddy was a changed dog! Brought his toys right out for my husband, ate good, and went right to bed that night!
It sure is cute to watch Abby sometimes she gets so close up to Buddy sometimes to nap! I think things are some better.
Thank you guys for all the help. I will be asking many more times!
