    Wow. Poor guy.

    The only thing i can think that it would be is that either it is the way the other one was bred or your intact male's hormones are sending one strong message of dominance.

    I really don't know if there is anything you can do for the little guy.

    Maybe:
    If you can contact the owners see if it would be OK to buy some calming essences for the boy. [You can either apply them to the tummy or in their water (depending on the variety though) Lavender is the popular one.]

    Please, if your dog is arthritic look into getting it Elk Velvet Antler. Look up my posts on it, PM me, or look it up on a search engine; but please if you love your dog and want it to live many more years consider this option. I've seen so many posts on here about dogs needlessly suffering. I can't make a new post about EVA every time so this plea is going here. EVA also helps with other ailments such as anemia.

    We had issues when we got Eli and he was still intact.. and Zeke was fixed. They are both males and I guess it was a competing dominance thing. Zeke went after Eli a couple times within the first couple weeks he'd been with us.

    We have no breeding desires, so we had Eli fixed and that seems to have solved most of Zeke's issues with him. I know this isnt an option for you though... It also takes some time for dogs to get used to each other, especially since new dogs have been brought into your dog's home..

    Id just watch them and make sure nothing happens.. They'll adjust soon I would imagine.

    Zeke [RB]: RottweilerxAustrailian Cattle Dog mix
