    Only Marta and Vallis will share so I voted "sometimes." Adele is somewhat food aggressive so can't share. They all eat from seperate bowls, however.

    good gawd no! in my house its "gaurd it or lose it" Happy is the most submissive dog in my house, she has to be locked in her crate to eat because all the others will walk up hackles raised and take her food, and since she is not a fan of food in the first place her reaction is "ok" and walks away. they are all more then willing to walk up to another dog attack them and then eat their food or take their bone or whatever. we did teach them to wait their turn though lol

    Yes. Neither of my boys guard, which is good. When they're eating their meals (Rmb's), both of them have learned to only eat their own food that I give them.

    I voted "sometimes." Maggie is usually willing to share with Autumn. Autumn will not share with anybody though. Autumn does allow Maggie to sleep in her dog house though. (even though they each have their own ) Autumn is possesive over her food, but not water. She also gets mad at Maggie if I am loving on her, and Maggie comes over. If I just pet her and Maggie comes, she is fine. When I hold Autumn she actually gets kinda vicious if one of the dogs come over.

    Autumn gets in fights with Boo boo almost every other day. They never have punctured each other, but they get in a pretty good tumbling match. If Autumn wanted to, she could rip Boo boo to shreds, we usually have to pull her off of him.

    Boo boo is pretty possesive over his dog house and food. He will growl and bark if anybody (even me) goes over to his stuff. He wont bite you or anything, he just likes of act like a tuff guy.

    Gosh...after reading this...my dogs all sound vicious, lol. Trust me they aren't, well not Maggie and especially not Autumn, I would trust her alone with a new born. Boo boo however, I have to admit, I am afraid of...he's on the "dangerous dogs" list for the city...if he bites one more person he as be surrenderd to the city and PTS.

    I voted for sometimes. They used to share toys & even chews when
    Maggie was a young puppy, but not anymore. They never fight or even
    growl at each other, but Maggie always seems to get her way. All she
    has to do is whine & paw at Smokey & he gives her whatever he has,
