<DIV><EM>Hi, I have a brand new problem, that just started on Thanksgiving, 2
times, and once today already.</EM></DIV>
<DIV><EM>When Honey is just sitting by my feet, or kind of near me, it seems
like for no reason, all of a sudden, Dottie and Honey are in this fight.
Dottie attacks her, and at first Honey didn't fight back, I stopped it so
quickly, but now the last 2 times, she fights back. It happens so fast, I
can hardly break them up fast enough. I don't know where this behavior is coming
from, it seems only be around me. I know Dottie loves me too death, she
always wants to hug and kiss and snuggle, and it's really only with me, not so
much with other family members. They are fine around other people
together, they eat together, sleep together, although it hasn't been as much the
last 2 days.</EM></DIV>
<DIV><EM>I think for some reason, all of a sudden Dottie has become very
protective of me. I brake them up, and hollered at Dottie, and tapped her
on the butt. Then she wo uldn't talk to me for about an hour or so.
I have never had to holler at either one of them, like I have had to now at
Dottie the last 2 days.</EM></DIV>
<DIV><EM>She is very protective of me, around the neighbors dog too, a large
Samoyed.</EM></DIV>
<DIV><EM>She does not like that dog, that dog has ADHD, and she has attacked at
her also, when that dog gets too close to me.</EM></DIV>
<DIV><EM>What can I do to stop this behavior right away???? I am afraid
one of them is going to get really hurt, or my hand in the middle will get
it.</EM></DIV>
<DIV><EM>Help? suggestions? thoughts?</EM></DIV>
<DIV><EM>Why would all of a sudden this start????????</EM></DIV>
<DIV><EM>They are both healthy, and seem to feel fine, they run and eat, etc.
etc.</EM></DIV>
