[Dailydrool] Ginny "and" Dottie the guard dog

[DAISY7521 at aol.com]

Dottie does the same thing as Ginny, but we don't go to dog  parks. Not for 
that reason, just because Dottie's front legs are so  crooked.  Dottie 
really really does not like the neighbor dog, at all! A  samoyed. This Sammy is 
a very neurotic hyper dog, and I don't think Dottie  likes fast moving dogs. 
The first Sammy the neighbor had, Dottie loved her  to pieces. This one, if 
they are in an area within 6 feet, Dottie just lunges,  she doesn't even 
growl. And the Sammy will fight back. Dottie is a real  sweetheart, we 
couldn't love her anymore then we do, but we do have to be  cautious.  There just 
seems to be some dogs, that they do not like.   Though it does seem to be, 
more so when we are around.
During the summer we play a lot of dominoes with the neighbor,  but Dottie 
and her dog cannot be in the same area, they all want to lay under  the 
table, and immediate fighting will begin. Dottie has never even once, shown  any 
aggression towards Honey, but she does like to keep Scooby our black lab, 
in  line at least every other day, yet she loves to run outside with her.   
Scooby can be way across the room, Dottie can be laying in her chair, with 
one  eye open, growl so slightly, and Scooby goes in the other room. Talk 
about  control, and submission, thank goodness.  My only remedy is we keep 
Dottie  and the Sammy away from each other, they are ok, if they are at opposite 
ends of  the yard, but it''s just not worth the tension it puts on us, or  
Dottie.
Maybe it's just like people, sometimes not all neighbors get  along either, 
I am stumped.  And I want to keep Dottie  safe..........
Barbie, sweet sweet Honey, submissive Scooby and Guard dog  Dottie.
