Fighting

[panda 0]

There not both bitches,Dog is 11mths and bitch is 14mths normally get out bushing for about 2 hrs 5 x a week but always in and out to garden. If they keep it up then the bitch has to go (last in first out).

 

There lyin up on couch right now sleeping on each other as if theve never had a crossed word in their lives.

You ever watched the dog whisperer he seems to pin them both buy their necks close to each other until they carm down (you need help ) iv tried it a few times with mixed results as highly bred digging dogs can be c**ts even dog v bitches , I would still never kennel them together alone but you normally only lose terriers IE dead if one is much bigger or their is more than to terriers in the kennel ,

 

 

Does the dog whisperer do it with terriers?

I've also heared that it helps separating fighting dogs when you splash water on them. It may help - but not with terriers.

 

 

I would seriously think if to keep both dogs in that case.

Sometimes grabbin then by the scruff and bangin there heads toghether works but sometimes just gettin gettin them is a mission.

Thats the worst possible advice you could give. One day you'll end up with a dead dog. They need to be kept separate, cos if they hate each other its never going to change, and leaving them to sort it out themselves will only make things worse and won't have a happy ending

 

Thats your opinion but your a show pony, £350 a pup, plummer keeper.

 

So we will just ignore you.

any need for that, everyones entitled to an oppinion

two of my jacks used to fight all the time one being a growing pup i used to grab their scruffs and pin them with their heads together tbh i found it to take a few fights to settle the dominance battle its been 7 months since they had their last fight that i know of now they seem like the best of friends they get a bit grumpy when in season but nowts really come of it good luck with it

You will probably find they are perfectly ok when out in the field , but the troubles start when around the home...

IMO if they can't be trusted and you can't control them, then get rid of one of them. Especially if one is biting you.

never in my life have i sold a pup for £350, in fact my last litter of plums didnt sell for a single penny and the one before that I didnt get £350 for the whole litter - am def a show pony though I do admit to going to three shows this year, and shown one plummer terrier in one and 2 plums in the other, out of the 5 that I own, mind you I've hunted a few times more than that too with all 5 of them

Yep, I have had this in the past, during hunting/exercise the dogs are fine but when they are confined in the house/garden (their territory) then the trouble starts. I'm afraid leaving them to decide whos boss will end in tears the majority of the time, speaking from experience seperation is the only option...............

[Guest busterdog]

OK lets just say that you are in hunt service and you've got digging coming out of you're ears. Now you can't do a full seasons work both stopping days and hunting days with one or two dogs, so lets say you have got at least ten terriers, now lets say that half of those dogs/bitches have grudges against each other and god knows you aren't going to give your much needed dogs away and its not practical to replace with someone else's shit, so what do you do then smart arse!

I have kept terriers for twenty five years and as i have said i do not condone dog fighting, its not big and its not clever, but sometimes you have got to give them chance to sort these things out for them selfs.

IT WILL ONLY END IN TEARS IF YOU ARE STUPID ENOUGH TO LEAVE THEM FIGHTING ON THERE OWN AND NOT SUPERVISED.

hello,

 

sorry mate but aren´t you the alfa of the pack??

it' not for you to sort it out?

show them whats the hierarchy, and them you must mantain.

they are fighting because they are competing for the higher "job" in the pack.

you don´t need to beaten up, only if starts you end it with a firm "NO" and a little shake grabbing their neck. if they are good give them a reward. They are not figthing dogs!!!

reward the good behaviour and deny them any privilege if bad behaviour is around.

 

i had apbts and you can believe that bitchs are worse than males. my little bitch raised all my dogs but when they are the same size she wants to kill them! in the first years i had no patience and beat the crap out of the bitch, the next thing was let me see where it goes. death in the yard! not a god way.

 

now, she is better and accepts almost every dog in the house except bigger than she.

not easy or perfect but much better.

 

someone was talking about dog whisperer? you must digg up more about that guy.

i don't know if she is better but your Jan Ferrell is very good and started earlier than he. surelly she is more experienced than he in the british breeds.

 

best regards,

Decent working terriers are bred for staying power, agression and no quit.

No amount of tecniques will overcome decades of breeding.

Whatever you do, it'll always be there, under the surface.
