I agree with Chris. NILIF goes a long way in the pack structure getting established.
If Jaz is also female you may have some issues in the future with them.Because they are less than a year apart, it would be a concern.
I have two females(both spayed) and one is submissive to the other. I also have a young intact male which can throw a wrench into it.
If Kacie challenges Onyx, though, I do have to intervene and diffuse the situation. It has happened a few times and mostly it is me that they are getting snarky over. When I'm not around they seem to get along ok according to my DH and kids.
