fights
by: Gayle-- Big Run Aussies

There was a time when I didn't give treats, bones, rawhides to my dogs to keep my male from taking them from everyone else. That is an option for you. You could also ONLY give treats, food, etc in their crates. It would totally stop the food, treat stealing and fights. This is a dominance issue and Aussies frequently win!

I have an aussie and a dudly lab - they have been together since they were both 6 weeks old. The aussie is the alph, however, the lab sometimes is dominant. The aussie has taught the lab to fight, etc. They do not fight over their food. They fight over bones. Just let them work it out. I only intervene when I see hair flying.
