Hi....I have a problem with my older dog. He's about 8 years old. last year i brought a puppy home n now he's about 11 months old. they got along fine until recently. my older dog gets a little jealous when we pat the yunger fellow. sometimes, he just gets irritated and jumps on the younger one for no particular reason. sometimes the fight gets really bad with each dog growling at each other. I need help as to how to curb this problem or what i should do. However they don;t fight all the time. though they keep away from ach other. they sometimes play but quite rare. can anyone help me with this problem? thanks.
Are u showering too much love on the pup and neglected the older one? Maybe u shud try to pat the older first then onli the pup? Watever u do to ur dogs, try to entertain the older one first then onli the pup.. Hope this would helps

hey guys...thank you for your suggestions but no I dont pay too much attention to the younger one. We always give the older one first and i play with the older one as well. The problem also occurs even when we don't play with the younger pup. I guess my older dog is just a moody fellow nowadays. I'm trying to see if it may become a serious problem or not. I guess i have to take the older one to a vet or something. anyways thanks alot fot your comments. take care ciow
