i had the same problem with my english bitch with my english dog. she was very dominent. in the end i rehomed her as the damage they did to each other was to bad.

They are a very jealous dog to own wiv other dogs...

by sorting it out i meant when my old boy gave the pup the look,or a small growl i didn't interfere. i just keep my eye on them, ready to step in.the pup knows just by the look he is given that he has passed the boundary. they have never fought or even squared up to each other. they get on very well and since getting the staffie pup my old man has got a new lease of life.

That's sounds good but don't forget your younger one is still a puppy and there might be a time when he hits maturity that he will challenge your older one.
As I explained in a previous post we had two bitches who did everything together as pups they were fine but when they matured it was a totally different ball game.They did challenge each other which resulted in a full blown fight.
I would advise anyone who hasn't got experience of the breed,never to keep two SBT's of the same sex.
There are always exceptions and there will be dogs that will quite happily live with others,but you need to apply common sense and for me this means supervising all of the time, and never leaving them alone together ever.
I know owners who have done this saying there fine only to come home to badly injured dogs who had previously lived together without any trouble.

Mine are opposite sexes and get along fine but there is noway I would leave them alone together,I won't risk it.
