My dogs FIGHT not play fight
😭
😂
Same 😭🤕
@AKA Flix I'm sorry to hear that 😥
@AKA Flix i just went to the dog park with my Doberman and he got bit near the eye making my dog bleed by another dog that initiated the fight.. I have never seen my Doberman mad with a strangers dog before 😭 This video helps !!
Most of these things don't work with big dogs that are seriously fighting. In my experience, if you pull on them with a leash or by their scruff, they just go harder. I had a couple pits that got into it and my neighbor ran over and told me to grab the hind legs of one and very quickly lift them up (wheelbarrow) and she immediately let go. I have also broke up a fight by dumping a glass of tea on one's head lol because it's what I had in my hand.
I use a spray bottle with water in it and spray my dog that is fighting the other dog it works really good
Mighty water hose
I'm glad that works for your situation. I've had dogs that would...not...stop...fighting! We had to use the water hose and basically put it in their face to get them to stop. Dog fights are terrifying.
Well... I use a broom to hit them with it when they fight so yeah...
We used to then we lost the bottle and we cant spray the birds they like it
Oh, sure...people carry around a big piece of cardboard. The dogs in this video are playing.
Real dog fights are vicious and the dogs do NOT even hear a command to "STOP." I have 18 rescued dogs and I have a cattle prod for when a fight breaks out. When walking a dog by himself, I carry a stick to ward off another dog from attacking.
Thank you. And how do you use the stick in case a dog tries to attack you or your dog?
Rae Rael ラエ・ラエル ~ LOL.... I'm going to do what you suggested, but I think I'm going to use a big beach towel. It will be easy just to throw over my shoulder. Thanks
I agree with the stick
I have a rottweiler and have had dogs run up on us when their owners leave their gates open (I know, stupid and irresponsible) one case two big dogs came out and I was lucky their other dog was barking through the fence not knowing it was open (lol) I stood over my dog holding the harness and yelled out, "get back" while pointing at the other dog's house, I think they were more surprised than I was because they stopped and looked like they were thinking about obeying or just tearing us to pieces haha, that moment of silence bought me enough time for their owner to come out and call em inside.. if you can't stop a loose dog buy yourself some time for others to help or to be able to arm yourself

If you've trained your dog thoroughly, there will not even be a command necessary. It will not fight back until you tell it to.
It's super scary to deal with dogs fighting. Thanks Dr. Jones for your suggestions. The key is being able to read both dogs body language to discourage negative behaviours before they lock together and injure each other.Food & fear can trigger a fight but it's not always easy to understand why things kick off suddenly between dogs.
This is a ridiculous video. He's dealing with aggressive play. He is not dealing with an all out aggressive dog fight. He's trying to pretend that he's employing magic to break up a elementary playground fight and pretending that it's a Chicago gang shootout. Good luck to those that buy into this.
My dogs don’t listen to 💩 when they fight (fought) so none of this would work but I still liked to video🤷🏽♀️
Thanks for watching!

The intro is so fucking funny when he's trying to talk and yet the dogs are fighting //playing 😂😂😂😂
Glad you enjoyed it:)
Excellent topic. Thank you for sharing.
Welcome
This was very helpful. I've often wondered what l should do if my dog got into a fight. Thanks for this. You rock.
a variety of methods are most best, because it can vary especially when a fighting type of dog is involed
Thanks Sandra
thanks for the information and education.
Welcome Shawn
My dogs fight either over jealousy or food or if they are too hyper. They fight aggressively. It's happened a couple of times and I tried to break them up before but I just couldn't I had to leave it till they broke up. I tried pulling its tail try to put one of them into another room but they kept on going for it.
Dr.Jones, it's really hard to stop a dog fight. However, thanks for sharing some helpful tips. :)
Welcome
It works!!!☺thank you so much
thanks for the information Sir.
Welcome
my 2 dogs got in a pretty nasty fight, they usually play fight but today was rough
no it was ruff
Long time ago,how they are ok
Thank you !!
Welcome
At the dog park where I am, I've instinctively broken up a fair number of dog fights. If needed, I can have a loud voice so I yell NO as I get in between each of them. I always look back & forth. ...Never been bitten but if it was ultra-aggressive breed, I'm not sure I would intervene. So far, I haven't been harmed & the fights I've stopped have prevented harm to the dear pooches or people.
that Airedale is beautiful and seem to love to play "rough" together
Yes
I have two female dogs. One is a Boston terrier mix with Pitbull named Bella and the other dog is a Jack Russell mix with mini pinscher named Peaches. Out of the blue they got into a fight. Bella developed a wound around her shoulder and we are having to treat it at home as I don't have enough money for a vet visit. Peaches still tries to go after Bella. What would you suggest in order for them to get along. They are both about a year old and were rescues
I helped break up a dog fight yesterday but the aggressive dog locked his jaw on the other dogs neck and I mean NOTHING happened. He almost literally killed him in front of our eyes. I did scream NO. I don't know if it was good or bad. I had to keep smacking his face and nose to save the other dog😢 I keep thinking even though the other dog got saved eventually and went to the vet, I still feel that maybe there was a better way. This is how I ended up here watching this video
I have an e-collar for my pit when he's playing with other dogs. A little ⚡⚡ if he gets violent breaks up the fight quick.
Ok I have a question. I have been following you. So I have two German Shepard and great Pyrennees pups that are 15 months. They got along and then I dont know the wind changed and bam they hated eachother. So we kept them apart and my oldest son has one and I have the other. When he comes to visit we double check to make sure the cages are locked. It's been working but I unfortunately was running late I opened up the back door by the time I realized it that sage ( great Pyrennees and German Shepard)was out of her cage I let Hazel ( Her sister and littermate) was halfway in and I tried to stop her from coming in and they got into it and my hand met teeth
Sage went to her room after fighting and it took a couple calls for Hazel to go to her room.
Help
I got bit once braking up a dog fight. Boy did it hurt and it hurt for quite a bit. Thanks Dr.
I have three dogs and recently two of them got into a fight,I've had them separate since then and just took them to neuter both,it's been about three days since their surgery but last night they both growled at each other. Any recommendations??????
Who are we as human beings to intrude on the differences between these gentle creatures.
I have one dog (who has been neutered) who gets riled up when people walk past our window. He sometimes attacks his brother and pins him down on the floor, snarling in his face. Do you have any advice on how to prevent this or stop it when it happens?
Mel watch the dog whisper the one dog is dominating the other one which he is submissive, Cesar Milan usually will pin down the dominant dog put 2-3 fingers on its neck imitating a dog bite and he makes him stay down and brings submissive dog over to him, dominant dog stays down as you walk away and with submissive dog next to him and you tell him to stay down, don't command down just say, Shht, Shht in a dominant tone of voice make sure he does what his told. I hope you can understand the book I just typed. lol
to prevent I watch as they play if it gets too aggressive for my comfort I clap and yell loudly but firmly and authoritative. when they are already fighting I've thrown a blanket on top or spray with water. if its real bad (only happened once) I thump on the nose. but it's best to stop it before it happens.
You gotta practice your dominance in pack, you are the pack leader they are your followers, if I was you I try to practice all the time one day it will get out of hand, and God forgive it happens when your not home and one get badly hurt or kill.
lifting the back legs of the dominant one (the main aggressor) some dogs will let go of their bite immediately while others will hold on for a while but eventually let go. (maybe because blood is going to the head or just the strange position of only the front feet in the ground)
if they take too long you can use your other hand to squeeze their throat, because the air is disturbed they will let go immediately.
(the only down side to lifting the back legs is if you raise the dog up high into the air lifting also their front legs of the ground but they are still holding their bite, you can actually cause the flesh to tare in the dog that they are holding)
another great tool (for constant aggressive fighters that won't listen) is a metal leash chain (not the very heavy ones) one lite enough so that you can swing it quickly. (you will only have to do this for one time)
When they are fighting, lash both of them one or two times, while commanding them to stop.
keep that chain with you so that another time when they begin to growl at each other just the sound of the chain will make them walk of. the chain also makes them take your command to stop seriously.
when I walk my dog I always carry that spare chain, not for my dog, but any stray or dog that tries to attack mine. (it has saved me get bills)
this can really back fire, the bigger the dog the more likely the person can get hurt badly, you could also end up hurting the dog too if things go wrong and you have to protect yourself, this is a high alert time for the dog who probably need exercise, a better diet and a job. Check out Zak on youtube, he knows his dogs, all kinds. Finding out the trigger and training for another response positively stops the problem all together.
Hey brother! My male boxer is attacking my female german shepherd💔. At first it seems like a corrective bite or like hes checking her or something. But he doesnt stop and it get more intense and she starts bleeding. And its not a fight she just kinda yelps and takes it. Idk what it is. I saw them mating recently. I think it may have something to do with that. But idk. Hope to hear from u thank u
At the beginning of this video, those are just dogs playing. Real dog fighting is when your dog and another dog won’t stop attacking each other, no matter what you do. I only clicked on this video because today my two dogs got in a fight for 5 minutes, and thought that they were literally gonna kill each other! My first dog, Pixie, was barking at my other dog Marcy and then Marcy nipped at Pixie’s ear, which caused the fight. Right now, Marcy is going to the vet because she had 6 bite marks in her leg, a ripped ear (just torn up) and a messed up eye. However, my other dog Pixie, just had messed up ears and a bite mark through the tounge. Another way to see if your dogs are actually fighting is if they don’t stop to take a breath, and you constantly hear them growling and barking at each other, I hope my dogs get better soon.
Well here, i got 2 two dog's both girls and both Aspins, the first dog was 4 years old and the 2nd is 1 year old, they always fight because when I pet the first, the 2nd gets angry and when i pet the 2nd the 1st stares at me with the intent to do something. I tie them on a leash separately so they wouldn't fight but once I remove the leash they fight more amazingly and more epic than the UFC fight or the fight of the century. How do I make them like each other?
I have two male Boston terriers. They are from the same litter but they will start fighting just if one of them looks at the other
They will start growling and break into a fight. Can I get some tips on how to prevent a fight?
1. Need to go to an experienced trainer, and get them both back into training. 2. Need to know the triggers- ie food, your attention, and avoid those while doing things where they don't react, and reward the positive behaviour. 3.This is a long process, no easy fix- ensure the trainer is comfortable with dog aggression
Veterinary Secrets thanks for the help. They are doing a lot better!
ah airedales !! the great escape astists . years ago my airedale escaped from our cabin in canada and got hold of a porcupine !! after a emergency vet she was ok

How do i raise a pitbull rotwiler german shepherd black lab mix .with chawawas.sizuew and rat terrer mixes .to were they get along and my pitbull stay mellow.my pits are 6 weeks old but other dogs are grown.please show vidio.ty
Excellent advice! I have broken up a few dog fights with water. Even a small amount, as from a bottle of water you might be carrying, seems to distract them long enough to break them apart. I had several large dogs jump on my dog and I used my hands to get ahold of my dog - hope not to have to ever do that again... bad injuries ensued for my dog and me.
chinookvalley we also use water to stop a dog fight
I've also used a dog bowl of ice cold water to break up dog fights. Startled the dogs with cold water on their faces. The sound of a very loud whistle and stungun will startle dogs too.
For my dog, she is a golden doodle with mostly golden retriever, but she used to attack my boston terrier which was older than her. She would have her pinned to the ground and sometimes take out a chunk of my bostons ear or draw blood from her. My boston was sadly put down in Oct. One week ago we got another puppy, a mini aussie shepherd and my golden doodle has already growled and tried to attack my puppy but I grabbed her before she could. I NEED HELP PLEASE! And NO we are not getting rid of one of the dogs!
Hello, I have two 3months bit bull puppies. How can I make them stop fighting too rough with each other.
I just think that if you have a dog you cant control or that is agressive when you take him out take him with a mussle, there is no harm done to the dog and you can be sure your dog and others will be safe. PREVENTION IS KEY PEOPLE!
Agree
any dog can and will bite if put into the right situation and if it feels cornered and threatened. Muzzles are great for known agressive dogs but these are great tips as a fight or agressive behaviour can happen with any dog at any time.
Or run into a crazy dog owner with heavy artillery.
I live in the Philippines my dog and our neighbors dog dont get along at all our neighbors dog is usually right outside the gate but sometimes he is inside the house. When I take my dog Gaston out tagpi (neighbors dog) has to be outside the gate and Gaston has to be in a leash until he is inside the panel. My dog Gaston might be taken away if starts to not get along with my first family dog. Our dogs are not trained although my dog Gaston never pee and poo in my room I am also trying to train him so he will not be taken away from me he is a really sweet dog but to strangers and other dogs he is aggressive
doctor what i can do i have #11 street dogs land they are fighting i felt so bad when they are in pain after fighting plz help me they adore me and i love them but i dont know how to control street dogs
Hi there! I have a question that can relate to this video as I am searching for some help with this issue I’m having with my dogs. I have a 1.5 year old dog and a 4 month old puppy. When I get home, my husband does, or we have any visitors over the puppy goes crazy on the older dog when she is greeting anyone. He begins growling and biting her neck and top of her back and barking at her. She usually corrects him in all other situations when he is doing something wrong but not in this one.., I’m confused to why? Is this jealous behavior? Or is it an attention issue? Once the older dog calms down from excitement then he stops the barking and lunging on her etc. Any idea what this could be?
It sounds like 'jealously' - my own dog goes into a barking frenzy whenever I bring the neighbors dog- I don't giver her attention until she listens to my commands a sits/waits. YOu may need to see a trainer
Ya.. When my ex girlfriends mastiff attacked my pitbull I tried all that stuff. It ended up taking me, my ex and all of my white belt Jiu-Jitsu skills to get that big SOB off my pit. They say don'tnt panic. Ya ok...
Panicking will always make a dog fight worse because, in the dog's mind, you become part of the fight. However, dogs follow people who are calm, so, if you keep yourself calm and be assertive, they will listen to you.
Please help my dogs got into a fight and my bully got hurt from my boxer over a toy and they never will stop..
First. Wagging tails means excitement not necessarily happy. Rough play can sometimes turn to a fight. They need to be supervised and when it starts to get out of control it’s time for intervention
You can use a flirt pole to try to get distance or have something like a water hose or a loud noise over their head to break it up. If you reach in to break it up , you will also get bit.
It’s kinda hard for me because I have a female staffy and a male mastiff cross bulldog and they go full force so it’s hard to do anything so I just spray them with the hose because it’s the ONLY way to break them up (the staffy is really possessive of me)
The dogs are playing, in a real dog fight there is no time to start calling your dog or getting a cupboard surely..
First instinct will always be to call your dog. It may not work, but its instinct and if they aren't too heavily engaged, a low deep growly voice may be enough to stop it. In dog training I use "off" as my negative command because it lends itself to the deep growl better than "no". Dogs communicate through tone and body language, so you have to know how to properly utilize your tone to communicate properly. Second, the cardboard is just an example of anything lying around. Typically people use break sticks. Which just requires you to grab a stick and shove it between the dogs, as soon as a dog bites onto it you push it back into their jaw to drive them back and they can't get their mouth off of it with the pressure towards the hinge of their jaw. It also prevents them from clamping down so if you can't force them back with it, it should atleast stop dogs teeth from doing damage.
Both of these methods should be used before trying to physically separate them because as soon as you do, no matter which method you choose (wheelbarrow, collar grab, etc) you put yourself at risk of being bitten.
My 2 brother dogs are more aggressive and ur two big dogs. The younger one of my shih tzu is being territorial to his brother. Always focusing at each other. When they staring each other the younger one always initiate a fight. I only spray them using my hose. Cant teach them how to liking each other. Help
At the moment i am babysitting my friends two dogs. I have a Jack Russell cross of my own and today, I introduced our newest member of the family, Tessa. Tessa is half staffy half mix breed, anyway i introduced Tessa to my Jack Russell and at first he (Cooper the Jack Russell) Was a bit territorial which is normal but after about an hour they had a pretty serious fight. I got really scared for Tessa as shes only 12 weeks old so i had to literally yell as loud as i could " STOP" to make them get off each other. They just had another fight, and i have had enough dogs to know the difference between play fighting and an actual fight. I'm really scared for Tessa and Cooper. I don't know if its just cause there is so much going on with everyone outside with the new pup, or if they need more time then just a day to get used to each other. Tessa is a pretty big breed compared to Cooper and shes already the size of Cooper. Can anyone please give me advise?
I got a dog that was abused an i took him in an i took care of him but now he is starting to be aggressive with my moms little dog an i need help how can i control him so he doesnt attack an there both tiny dogs
My puppy started fighting with my other dogs.. he is always fight with my older dog.. i yell at them but they dont stop.. we lock they in the cage after they fight.. can you help with this
Are they playing? You said “Puppy”. Almost any puppy wants to play.
I have two dogs in my house. Its a little bit strange when my girl dog becomes aggressive to the boy dog. Water or shouting at them is not the solution. Myghad. I dont know if that because of her pregnancy or because of something that we dont know. Do you have any solution to stop them?
Our dog has a daughter and it is 9 months now and idk why they just fought and right now they are like strangers and whenever the daughter is near to it’s mother the mother is like nervous and shaking and she has a lot of scars now
Your dogs acted perfect for the video Doc!!
They did a good job didn't they
How do I get my chawawa to stop attacking me out of nowhere.he was rescued from a puppy mill.please help he's possible has water on the brain and dose have sizzers.but lately he's been acting afread and then he's comes up to me being loving and then I will go love him back and then he wants to rip off my face and I have been putting him in the kennel for a time out until he's done with being mad for no reason.
My two dogs are always fighting it seems and it's exhausting. One good stare is all it takes sometimes. Other times they are like peas and carrots. I always go for the big dogs waist and pick up the back end off the ground. Works every time so long as my wife or someone is there to stop the smaller dog from pursuing as i drag the larger dog away from the fight. She's never tried to swing around and bite me, too busy trying to bite her sister still. I don't dare let the fight go on, because it seems viscous and they have both drawn blood before. Don't grab the back legs, grab just in front of them.
Thank you! That is the number 1 mistake people make with the wheelbarrow method, they try to grab the legs. Instead you should wedge your hands in their hip pockets and lift up. They can't kick away, and they can't dislocate their legs. Come from the back, reach towards their waist, and scoop your hands back so that they are in the hips near the groin. Works like a charm and is especially good if you have two large dogs and two people so that each can do it the the dogs. If they swing around to bite you have control of their hips so you can just swing them around and get yourself out of their biting distance.
After 5 bad dog fights in our home we kept a bucket of water handy to pour on them and it worked
Hello, thank you so much for making this video, and I have a question of which I’m desperate for an answer.
About a month ago my two large breed dogs got out, one a female, the other a male, they were away for about a week before we finally found them, however since they’ve come home, they’ve been acting different. The female has settled down for the most part and rarely acts out, as for the male- he’s been randomly attaching my other large breed male dog on a regular basis.
We love them both so much and we don’t want to consider giving one away, or anything, but we need to find a way to make it all stop. Do you have any ideas on why he would be acting like that, or what we can do to get him back to normal? Please please please respond
Love, a dog lover from Florida
Hi Reyna - sounds behavioural, and can you get a consult from a trainer?
Is the female in heat maybe? And the one male wants to mate w her and is combating the other male maybe
I know this was 3 years ago, but the best way to stop aggression towards on another is to walk them together. Best with two people so you can keep them on opposite sides, but it will train them to release energy together and work towards a common goal. When they attack at random like that it is typically because they are bored and they sense weakness and an opportunity to show dominance. Walk them together everyday and you should see the aggression decrease. Dogs need to be stimulated, and the worst thing you can do is try to keep them separate. Separation will create a me vs them mentality and aggression will increase, similar to that of leash aggression.
in a dog fight there is no lifting back legs is only break up fight fast without getting your fingers in there mouth. after that immediately assert dominance by pining down dog that started fight bring other dog next to it, if both dogs started fight they both need to be pin down next to each other until they both are calm next to each other. my point is Caesar Milan is the man, watch him.
try that with a Doberman! Crazy advice. Pin a dog too many times and he'll bite and it may not be you he bites...the child with the outstretched hand for example. Milan is dangerous.
Cesar Milan will hold the fighting dogs on either side of him until they calm down, but, he never puts them on their sides because they are too worked up for that.
But Milan is only one not the rest of the dog owners
old school, in my opinion, however, some of his tips are effective. I think building trust between you and dog is better way with training and relationship between dog and person, that's my opinion. How do you pin dogs down when they are locked on to each other and or, one is on top of other dog during fight? With a leash or towel or something?"
hahha omg im doing dog walking job in nyc . im a newbie..i first experienced walking a retriever and started playing with a pit mix. i thought its going serious they were biting each other. the owner of the pitmix said they are just playing but im still anxious coz i dont know which is playing and hurting each other..its difficult to interrupt them and the owner doesnt really care. lol so i found myself watching this
My two dog in my home just one week's over fighting and both r blood what can I do it pls tell me I'm over headache my husband say get loss for home in my dog 😢 I love you dog so much pls any tips for dog 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you this was helpful 💕 Im watching a friend's dog and today he attacked another friends much smaller dog , shaking it and not letting go and my immediate instinct was to put him into a choke hold hugging his neck until he let go, it was really scary bc I thought he was going to kill the small dog 😩 but later I realized he could have easily bit me too !
Welcome
Our 4 dogs have gotten so bad that the mother of 5 puppies one of the four dogs always goes for her and nearly killed her we can't let more than one dog out of the cages we own because they all fight till death they all teamed up on my fully grown cat twice but he's still alive have any idea how to stop fights this bad(they are almost impossible to do it safely and one of the five family memebers always gets hurt or torn)
Really good advice! I tried the wheel barrow method and I got bit. My dog did it instinctively. It wasn't a really hard bite but I'd never do that again. I like the barrier technique.
Thanks
With the wheelbarrow the key is that you have control of your dogs lower body. As soon as their head whips round, you swivel. It's like a dog trying to chase its tail. Keep swiveling everytime the turn to bite, and eventually when you have the opening, grab their collar and use your arm as a bar against their shoulder to prevent the head from twisting. Let the dogs hind legs down, pull straight up on the collar (not back, don't want to put pressure on the windpipe) and walk the dog away.
Hi i have a yorkie poo and at night she has been getting lots of growling in her stomach please help asap
can be that the food that you are giving her is not good or easily digested by her.. see if she has eaten something weird or maybe she has parasites.
an upset stomach. A simple home remedy such as chamomile or peppermint tea
Ok thanks you so much
My suggestion: carry an air horn and an umbrella. Air horn first, open umbrella to get between them
A dog with a wagging tail alone means nothing. It will still potentially maul. Short wags with the tail pointed up is a sign the dog is in attack mode. Long tail wags with the body moving with the wagging is a sign the dog is being friendly.
While walking my dog a mix pit bull type tried attacking my dog. And I lifted up my dog and the big dog was jumping trying to bite my dog. I ended up getting bitten on my arm twice( had to get injection 5 times!)..
the cardboard advice doesnt work,today my two dogs got in a nasty fight i tryed the cardboard trick and they just run around you
Yes, they will try to run around you, so, you have to keep the cardboard between the dogs until they give up.
I have two 6 year old shar Pei sister and brother. I recently had to step in for my sister n law and take in her 12 week bulldog due to her being sick. All was fine the dogs were all getting along until the 5 month old bulldog turned aggressive to my shar Pei boy he wants to attack him in a vicious way we keep breaking it up but it’s extremely scary! Can anyone please help give advice to me. I don’t want to have to give the bulldog up but I don’t know what to do.
Please see a dog trainer
I agree I use the harshness of my voice to get my 3 [rescue] dogs from "getting much too rough" near fighting and I have never had a problem with that.
OK
I have a small dog breed that attacks my bigger dog and I don’t know what to do. When my Bigger dog gets too close to him, sometimes my small breed dog starts growling at him. My bigger dog tries walking away after the growling but my small dog follows him like if he was trying to say “ YOU WANT TO PICK UP A FIGHT OR WHAT?!!.” That’s when my big dogs back hair start to raise up. My small dog then bites him on the neck causing my big dog to get angry Thus, initiating the fight. Please help.🥺😭
I'm 12yrs old and they just started actually fighting and whimpering and the one who starts it always follows me and licks when he's done fighting what do I do???
But i'm getting a dobe and want to know how to stop it from fighting.
We have two German shephard puppies of 6 to 7 months they fight each other very much also they bring blood also what should I do plz tell
Please consult a trainer
Without training I want
Something i have available, but yet to try is an air horn. I'm a little afraid to blow it in the house, but i recon it will stop them in their tracks. Something to consider if you are by yourself, but be prepared for hearing loss.
My husky fights with my mutt when I'm around but the small one starts the fight what do I do?
I have the exact same problem
me too
That's my prob too
My mom’s Pitt will not let go for anything.
My dogs get into pretty aggressive fights one is a pitbull on is a American bully i think I have to separate them from each other at all times , the fights they get into full on fights idk what to do
Since they see us as family could they react aggressively to us as they do each other?
If thats a dog fight then i got a fucking dog WAR on my hands
That's unfortunate, I hope this video helps.
Dr. Jones you always have such good videos. Sir I have a 3 year English Bulldog that has Bone Inflammation (Panosteitis) in both hind legs. He has had this condition for most of his life and limps on 3 legs. Sometimes he can barely walk and is in pain. Every sense he was 6 months I have given him meds (NOVOX CARPROFEN) 100MG every day. Is their any natural meds out there that I can change him over to? I'm so worried about his health. Thanks Bill
BILL KELLY He does has a video on this. Look into Advanced Cetyl M Joint Action Formula for Dogs. There are YT videos on this.
You can try giving him 5 drops of dmso with pure water it helps inflammation and pain. I would also give them a tsp of colloidal silver...
Hi Bill- you also need a diagnosis. Panosteitis should be gone now.
This isn't too helpful unless you sense an attack before hand and happen to have huge cardboard sheets with you, but in the heat of a fight it's useless as they won't listen to voice commands and would have their teeth into their target and are likely not to let go there fore cardboard in the middle won't work. Also on your own it is nearly impossible to separate them unless you are very strong, also it really helps if you have help of someone to hold their collars each and safely try to pry their teeth off of each other, whilst pulling them away from each other and in a different room for a while.
Imagine if I sit and watch my dogs fight then I would have only one dog
I have a German Shepard and a chocolate Lab. The German Shepard is only 5 years old and the Lab is 4. THE LAB IS THE SWEETEST DOG YOU’LL EVER SEE. However, last year the German Shepard got all muddy when my mom wasn’t home and we couldn’t let her inside. So when she got home then we had to rinse her off with the hose. The German Shepard didn’t react good and the Chocolate Lab thought she was hurting my mom. The Chocolate Lab attacked her and it took forever for my dad to separate them. Thennnn, a couple of weeks ago, the German Shepherd attacked my Chocolate Lab but my Chocolate Lab won the fight and nearly killed the German Shepard. How my dad has been separating them is tying a belt around the dog and chocking them till their off. I’m to the point that if the German Shepard attacks my Lab then ima let my Lab kill her. The German Shepherd now keeps attacking my Lab’s face and she’s just allowing it. YOUR DOGS WERE PLAYING THOUGH.
Ok, I have a chihuahua and a puppy German shepherd and every time my chihuahua goes near food the shepherd goes nuts on the small dog not exactly sure what to do any suggestions? And for god sake don’t say “me too” or “this is my problem too”
Thank u for that my dogs aren't fighting
My daughter's dog always fight when they just done showering ... idk why? Is it because they cant smell each other smells after they just done bath? The smells gone ? 🤨 ... My daughter and husband tried to separate them and they turn more aggressive. Yeah they made it to separate the dog and end up my daughter have a small injured ... Luckily not that bad and we directly go to the clinic. ..
Someone please answer. I’ve had two dogs they are both hounds. They have been living together for 8 years. They are related dogs. Yesterday, they fought, like crazy they have deep bloody scars. Now, they start fighting whenever they see each other. Is there actually a way to stop them?
Yeah get rid of one of the dogs.
William Goboff Are you actually being serious?...
Dont let your dog think hes the boss of you u must show that u are the boss
I can tell you I've tried everything to break my pits up. They will latch down and will not let go
It can definitely be very difficult.
same here...one time we were at the beach and my husband hit them over top with a boogie board it broke them up long enough for us to grab them and get them apart. I mean they latch on and nothing you do or say works until they get too tired or are ready to let go. It sucks.
Ok try to do this when they lock up, its only one way, block the air, if they cant breath they will let go. Never hit, dont yell, be calm.
Rs x I have heard this before as well. And although it sounds effective, just wrapping your arm around your dogs neck is putting your face near it’s jaws.
Sounds rough but to stop a big dog fight punch at the jaws
Good to know.
My dogs normally get along and will paly and sleep together. My female has food aggression. I feed them separately because of this. My female has attacked my male a few times because of random things like a baby wipe pulled out of the trash or a food package that fell on the floor without me realizing. She has attacked him 3 times now but every time it has been worse. This last time she attacked him pretty good and he received some deep wounds. My dogs play like in the video but dog fights are a completely different story. They are viscous and I think the attacking dog's mind goes into kill mode. This is how dogs or animals minds work. They pass a certain point and that is it. I love both my dogs and they don't fight normally. This last time, I've had to look into how to break up the fight faster. I found the "break stick" and I also found a video on how to use a tent stake as a break stick. I ordered a break stick on Amazon and then bought 10 tent stakes from Home Depot to place around my house to have handy. There are several videos in YT on how to use the break sticks. On the other hand, the last time my dogs got into a fight one of my dogs had really bad injuries. I took him to a friend who is a vet tech and she showed me how to care and clean out his wounds. Where I live the vet care is really expensive and I am sure this would have cost at least $1000. He had some wounds on the side of his face and ear that she was concerned about. She cleaned him out with hydrogen peroxide. She told me that I needed to clean out that wound several times a day and not to let it close for continual cleaning or it would become infected. She told me that if it closed up it would become infected and I would have to take him to a vet and it would be more expensive than when it happened. I tried my best not to let it close. It closed and he was showing signs of it becoming infected. He started looking up and licking in the air in discomfort and this lasted for almost a day so I knew I had to act quickly. I have what is called MMS (Miracle Mineral Solution) and DSMO. I read testimonials where people and animals with cysts or infection pockets used this and they were healed. My dog was in bad shape and just showing signs that he had an infection. I gave him 4 doses a day with a syringe in his mouth to take internally and I also made a spray to spray the external wounds. I also flushed out the other wounds with the MMS and DMSO combo solution. Even people and animals with cancer have been healed. My precious boy was better within 2 days. No problems since. He is back to his normal wiggle butt self. He's a boxer =0) and so full of love and personality! Here is the testimonials for both people and animals using MMS and DMSO. It's really amazing. It is truly a miracle how this solution works. mmstestimonials.co/
I'm in a mobility scooter when walking my dog or even going to dog park. I'm thinking if getting an air horn to startle them. Another dog attacked my dog at the dog park because some ignorant owner brought their dogs chuck It ball. My dog ran after it too and the fight broke out. The other dog ripped my dogs ear flap. Good thing they were close enough to the dogs and broke it up. But it was all so unnecessary if they only would follow the rules and not being in toys. So lesson learned. Leave the park if someone beings in a toy, or there are too many dogs at the par,k.
Good suggestion
I live in a condo complex with a dog park. A woman came in one day with a horn and her 2 dogs. One of them was pretty aggressive and a fight broke out. She used the horn and all dogs stopped and we're like "WTF was that" . It worked! Personally I don't think she should of even been in the dog park with an aggressive dog but I guess at least she was prepared lol.
in my case i have 2 rotties, one is 2 years old, the other one is around 10 (both females), they were both alright, the older one knows the younger one since she was a puppy and they've been living together in the backyard since then. Months ago (like, september/november) the older rottie went through a surgery on her leg, vet suggested to leave her in the front yard for a couple of weeks, maybe a month or two so she can fully recover, after she recovered we tried to send her back to the backyard with the younger one, and the younger just started to try pick up a fight with the older one, one day i was asleep and my mom was screaming from the backyard and i woke up immediately just to find out the younger rottie was aggressively biting the elder one, i panicked and the first i thought was to get behind the younger rottie and grab her neck with both hands (like the way mothers do to carry their pupies) and she calmed herself. After what happened we've tried to get them together but it's been all failures (as in the young rottie ends up trying to bite the old one). I seriously don't know what to do. I get kinda scared when i got to take them both to the vet for checkups because i don't know if they were gonna fight again or not.
Hi, sounds very distressing and challenging. I would suggest a skilled trainer to assess the dogs together
Thank you
Hi, unnfortunately, the nature of many animals is to prey on an elderly, weaker animal. The younger dog no doubt senses the older dog is weaker since the broken leg, and is triggered to prey on her. Since they're well matched in terms of sizes and breed, a fight can mean a fight to the death. Two bitches are also more likely to continue to fight once they've decided they hate each other. I would keep them separated from now on. Bring the older dog inside and don't leave them alone together anymore.
For the future, it's better to have a male/female pairing. They're much more likely to get along.
ScarletAmazon Thank you very much, i don't mind having the older one indoors, she's very friendly and quiet, im more worried on those times where i have to take them to the vet. But again, thank you so much for the advice
My sweetheart female pit who we have had for over 5 years will attack any other female we try to adopt or foster. She is fine with our males and did great with a female puppy (6 weeks old) she babied her. In fall we took in a small female dog headed to kill shelter and came home from work one night and she was dead....blood everywhere and pit was only one with blood on her and a few small wounds. We couldn't prove exactly what happened. We took in a lab/Shepard mix (female) again headed to kill shelter and today while at market pit attacked her. This time though the pit got some decent wounds. They do not fight when we are home. They play outside together. So from now on I have to lock everyone up for safety. So sad.
LOL LOOK AT THIS TIME STAMP 3:08
In a real dog fight none of this is going to work
our 2 pitbulls started fighting and we ordered a stun-wand. Wow that is really powerful! The noise alone will scare the heck out of them and most likely stop them from fighting. We didn't use it yet.
House Of K9 Rather than just criticizing and saying something won’t work, why don’t you offer up a better solution.
And what to do when 2 street dogs fight how to solve please reply please
