Dogs are like children...

but I don't think children try and fight to the death like my dogs do. Today is the third time in the last couple of weeks that Chevy and Ari have gotten into a pretty major fight. It's getting to the point that I have to do some drastic behavior modification or get rid of one of them. I don't know what to do anymore, because I know I'm the problem. (or, at least, I'm 99.99% sure I'm the problem.) For instance, today I was out in the backyard and playing with Chevy, as soon as i turned around to play with Ari, Chevy was at his throat attacking him, from what I believe is extreme jealousy. I'm a big girl, but today I was shown just how weak and helpless I am when two dogs are duking it out. I just want us to be one big happy family!! David had to come out and handle the situation himself, because apparently they only respect him. I hate feeling so helpless in that situation, especially when it's a fight between two of MY dogs. I don't know what to do, but I'll definitely have to look up some local trainers here in Austin and maybe get someone to come out and get him/her to assess the situation.

Welcome to the jungle.
