My husband is away next week so we are going to put both dogs into the kennels (two large dogs, one bad arm and no strong husband is a receipe for disaster!), we will have them castrated the week after and then I am looking for a behaviourist for some serious training ...... after that I can't think what else we can possibly do.

i think your main problem is the two boys are the same age both want to be top dog ! in a pack situation you can only have 1 leader hopefully you !some times this will just work its self out ,where 1 dog backs down but in your case neither wants to back down so you have a serious problem
training can help but in my experience you would be better to concider finding 1 of your boys another home
not a easy decission i know but not easy for you or your dogs to live with
dogs can live together but males are better if the age gap is as far apart as possible or you are lucky and have 1 that is naturally submisive
i live in a pack situation one old bull dog & five staffords two of them are dogs but with a 9year age gap and i am top dog !! karen @bluestafford
