[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 243220, member: 84"] In Molly's eye she was "protecting" the baby from Betsy's wild running around playing with Nichole. She's done this sort of protection of young children since she was a pup. And I've seen it alot. Normally it results in Betsy tummy crawling to Molly full of apology. Maybe tonight Betsy was just irked because Molly got the bone taken from both of them. lol Oh........how do I deal with the bone issue?? Thanks to lovely Precious, Molly will no longer share food or bones with another dog. Nothing I've tried works. She doesn't attack, but like you said.....there is alot of posturing going on. Posturing stops as long as there is 2 bowls of food. But bones it makes no difference because Betsy always wants the one Molly has. (sounds like kids lol) So they have to be gated apart to chew on bones. I don't know how else to do it. Before Precious and her wanting to dominate, Molly shared food and bones all the time with any animal. But Precious was brutal. Which of course is why she has a new family that do not own another dog. Oh, both were put into time out. Both are now upset with me. Molly apologizing and wary. (she's not used to being scolded, she doesn't usually need it) Betsy just seems sort of sad. I haven't let them in the same room with each other yet. Although they've made up at the baby gate. Molly may be sore from being outside all day. [/QUOTE]
