Hi!
My 10 week old pup does NOT get along with her sister (who is owned by my fiance's parents). We've been to their house twice now, and both times we have had to physically separate them or keep them in separate rooms.
I think the sister pup is intimidated/scared/threatened by our pup because the first time they got together at the sister's house, our pup 'won' all the puppy fights (they were running around outside). Now, the sister pup will bark, growl, lunge and chase our pup all around the house nonstop. Our pup will also do the same to her sister, but it is mostly initiated by the sister pup and ours retaliates (or at least that's what it looks like).
The funny thing is they're fine when they're eating or drinking. They don't have any problems sharing! But once the food is gone, it's back to chasing, barking, and growling.
What can we do to make them get along? We will be going away for a week at christmas and they will be babysitting our pup!
