We have not taken them to the vet yet, as we need to get the money together first as our vet won't take payments. I know that is the first step, so that's what we'll do! Meanwhile we are keeping them separated and/or muzzled.

Minkee - Your post scares me. I had never heard that about two females living in the same house. I soooooo do not want that to be true for us. I added more to my last post, as I've been racking my brain trying to think of any clues we missed or things that we thought were insignificant at the time. ...

Boo latched onto Libby's neck and wouldn't let go, we got them apart and Boo charged at Libby again and ...

I just read the post about posting and I guess I should give more background information. We live in a small city, there are no dog parks. We have lots of people who walk their dogs down our street, and our dogs bark at them every time. We have a nice size backyard that is fenced in, the dogs have a...

We have a 5 year old Cockapoo (Boo) and a 3 year old Beagle (Libby) - both females. We brought Libby home when she was 8 weeks old and Boo raised her. They play together, sleep together...practically do everything together....Life has been good until this week. Boo has viciously attacked Libby on 3 ...
