Why are my 2 bitches fighting

englishrose943 · #1 (**permalink**) 02-04-2008, 06:02 PM

Can anyone help me, my 2 girls have started growling and fighting all the time with each other for nothing. They where both mated 2 weeks ago could that be anything to do with it. They have both had litters before but never done this. Any ideas??

Hi, It could well be because they have been mated at the same time, try and keep control of the situation so that it don`t get out of hand.

Take yourself back to the pack - in a pack only the alpha bitch would be in whelp is one of yours the alpha bitch I would keep them separated until well after the pups have gone they are looking for the dominance and the alpha bitch is trying to dominate the lower ranking bitch.

Yes Mia is the alpha bitch, i have usually bred them seperate meaning one one season and then the other on the second season but this time it has happened together so its a first for me. Also when one has had pups the other one produces milk and helps out the mum and all is well.This time its world war 3 being bred together.
