I am new to the forum. I have a four dog home. A female belgian Malinois,Cleopatra, who runs the house. A female Fila, Venus, who is four. And a male Cane Corso, Valentino, who is the baby at 14 months. A few months ago, we inherited a male coonhound, Spartacus. They mostly get along fine, but lately the two males have at strange times, been going after each other. Sometimes it is over affection from us. We have tried to make changes in the house. We have started kicking everyone off the furniture. No one gets on a sofa or bed now (at least while we are there). They all have to sit and wait for food, to go out. They are basically all well behaved. Except for incidents when Valentino goes after Spartacus. Never any bloodshed. I can actually grap Valentino's collar , and walk away with him, without a problem. Other times, they are great together, sleep side by side, play nice. There is no real aggression around food or toys. For whatever reason, Valeninto wants to be the BMOC. I am not sure what to do about the situation, beyond putting muzzles on the boys when I am not there.
