Dog 1 and 3 are taken out together and have gradually been introduced - they get on great now however as predicted if dog 3 was to go near dog 1's food she would tell him off.

Thanks - Yes, we've spoken to the person we purchased our bitch from and he is speaking to various different people if she can be apprasied again using a special collar so we're still waiting for news about that.

Please don't tell me this is an E-Collar?

I don't let my two near each other when they have food,all hell would break loose.

Thanks for info. What age was she when you got her?

Please do not use anything like an E-Collar for her next appraisal it would only be a quick fix to ensure that she passed it which would enable you to take the litter that you are posting about from a dog that YOU know is aggressive and will continue to be aggressive after such an appraisal.
I would strongly urge you to set to work regarding those issues and only do her next appraisal until you feel confident enough that she may pass it next time without having to use such a barbaric contraption.
Using something like an E Collar, Prong Collar..etc in the short term to ensure that she passed this apprasial could possibly bring more problems in the long run - such as fear aggression.

I would really find another solution and forget breeding from her altogether.

Its a electronic device with is attatched to a collar,it has metal prongs on the underside which goes through the dogs scruff fur to make contact with the skin,the handler then,with a hand held controller can give the dog electric shocks to correct bad behaviour,at various different strength levels.

Please do not breed from her - you seem very eager to get her through this appraisel so you can breed from her - but aggresion can be passed through the lines and especially with this breed it would be a bad combination - only put her back through it IF you can sort the problems out first without using anything like an e collar or prong collar.

I agree that I would not breed from this dog, I would be more comcerned with the aggression towards people than pups.

you should not be considering breeding a dog with this temperment and i am not in favour of the collar either

mad:are you only interested in get pups of this dog?
