Thanks for the advice....it means a lot.

I don't belive I can let them fight it out, the first fight they got into...both dogs needed stiches, Tuffy almost lost one eye. Brock had him completely up in the air holding on to his neck. My husband had to beat Brock off with a 2x4. and even with that he got a chunk of his arm tore out. Even when it looked like Tuffy wasn't putting up a fight, Brock still went at it. I don't think I could ever watch something like that happen again. We were lucky, this fight was not as bad and they where easier to break up, so i'm hoping that might be a good sign. It only took 2/3 hard kicks and Brock let go. Then Brock went his way and Tuffy went another.

They need to work this out though....I want a happy home.

Last night Brock got out of the pen, he chewed a hole in the chainlink. He's never been pened so I guess he was telling us what he thought about that. I got up this morning and there was Brock sleeping on the front deck. And I was just getting ready to let Tuffy out to pee, thinking it was safe. So for now Tuffy will stay with me at all times, he going to be happy about that. Hope that doesn't make him think it's worth getting into fights, fight=mommy time.

Tuffy is going to be fixed, no more daddy job for him. I was told it could take up to 6 months for the testosterone to get out his system, so we will still need some good fence work to keep them apart. And of course theres that chance that it might not work.

Thanks everyone for the help.
