Hi
We have a two 4 year old French Bulldogs. They have been together since about 3 months old. They have always got along and it seems as though the smaller white male is the alpha. Our other male a little larger is more docile and laid back.
Recently my daughter, her husband and 6 year old daughter had to move in with us. The also brought their 2 dogs a mini pinch (about a year old) and a jack russell female about 7 years old. Neither of these dogs have anything to do with the two frenchies. Most of the time they stay upstairs and never see my dogs.
Shortly after them moving in my white frenchie start to attack my other frenchie. He is brutal and goes for blood. He will start trembling and if you move to get him or say anything he immediately attacks. Poor Joey's face looks like it's been hit by a meat cleaver. I can separate them and usually put them in separate rooms. Sometimes after 15-20 mins they will get along and the white frencie will be kissing all over the other one other times as soon as they see each other they start again. I thought it was just when I was around but lately it doesn't matter who is around they go at it. I'm lost as to what to do, any suggestions? I'm afraid my Joey is going to have a heart attack he gets so out of breath. Any help would be appreciated.
