I'll try to keep this short... I have two dogs, George BC X Lab who is 17
months and Dougie a BC who is 15 months old. I had George 4 months before
Doug. Dougie is by far the stronger / heavier of the two but George is the
dominant dog. They get on great and never fight but sometimes I feel their
playfighting which is 50% of their waking moments is a bordering on sorting
out pack order. It is obvious Doug knows George is the Alpha but he tries it
on but always backs down. Like I have said before there is never any serious
/ proper fights. Is this normal behaviour? Will it be an ongoing thing or
will it peter out and eventually Doug will give up and know his place? or is
it just their ages? Doug always seems to want what George has, they have
numerous toys but Doug wants the one George has, if they are given a chew /
bone Doug wants Georges where as George wants both.
Any comments greatly appreciated.
