Aggression between unfamiliar dogs can be due to fear, poor communication, defensive, possessive behavior over resources (including perhaps family members or other pets) or territorial behavior over territory or owner. Aggression between dogs can result in injury to dogs and/or to the people trying to separate them.
How do you make my dog stop attacking my other dog?
Manage your dogs' environment so they don't have the opportunity to antagonize each other. Identify your dogs' stressors and eliminate as many as possible to keep them further below their bite threshold while you modify behavior. Seek help from a qualified positive behavior professional if you are in over your head.
Why did my dogs randomly start fighting?
Dogs fight for many reasons including resource guarding of territory, toys, or food. Or they might react out of fear. Some dogs go on the offensive when they feel threatened hoping to scare the other dog away.
