She is obviously top dog, but second in command. you are the TOP DOG, so to speak. It is a veyr hard lesson to learn, but I now let mine fight if they are going to. That way they sort out the heirachy. Unless of course they look like they kill eachother-ie grabbed round the neck. We had two, Spy and Falan that hated eachtoehr and eventually Spy was rehomed. Now we have no problems as long as we keep the boys apart. Bear in mind all mine are entire so keeping boys together is asking for trouble. It appears that Brad is Boss but it is in reality martha. Brad had a go at her a while ago and she flew right back at him. Brad immediately backed down and looked so confused. He slunk away from her and now accepts hers as Boss. However, he behaves like he is Boss for appearances sake! > > > mack -- bw colin DAK,BRO GC, 950i, 940,860,864,890, 260,Silver 830,860, 580 and 270, Passap 6000, Duo80.
