sibling rivalry/fighting

[Laurie L]

I have two 3 year old Cairn Terriers. They have begun fighting, we have dealt with this before when they were much younger however it is never a fun time. Does anyone have any tips as to how to quell the fighting. We are getting closer to ending it but I still sense the tension especially when one enters a room that is occupied by the other. Thanks for the advice, Laurie

Laurie,

Have you established the dominance order between the two yourself? And are you the definite alpha in the relationship? You may have to remind them that you HAVE decided who is the subordinate dog and they ARE to honor that.

Good luck,
