Hi ...

Both your dogs are still very young and ... it's time to start basic training with them ...

That your young dog is growling at you is not so good ... and you are right to be concerned.

Use the Search Function and look up the relevant threads ... and check the index to this section ... There is much information already available.

For a start check these threads:

To stop fighting within ur dogs, 1st step definitely is provide each dog their own bone, but remember u have to decide which dog should be the leader, I will advice the 1 which stay longer with u. Always provide the leader the bone 1st, give him food 1st, pet him 1st, everything first. Once they make it clear who is the leader, they wont fight easily.

To stop the dog growling at u, u have to start training ur dogs. Ask them to do something for eg. sit, down before u let them eat. Interupt them when they eat half way, give them command, if they obey, allow them eat. Let them know u r their leader, they have to obey to u if they want to get something. If ur dog growls at u means he is not respecting u.

Well, it will be too long to tell everything here, do keep us updated with ur dogs ok? Smile

Suggestions: get a bone and separate your dogs from fighting and get the pitbull and shih poo to get along after that. If all ends well, you will hv 2 happy dogs Smile
