I am a pit bull owner/lover. I got my Sadie Mae a little over a year ago- for xmas....she was 2 months old.
She is the best....she has a personality. she is so spoiled.
I have 3 kids. my youngest who is 8 yrs old...used to be scared of dogs....any dog. she loves my dog as much as i do.
About 6 months ago, a friend and his female pit came to stay with my family. At first the girls were jealous of each other. Yet both received tons of love and attention. both dogs came in heat the same week. that was challenging! And unfortunately Harley Ann locked up with the neighbors dog....now she's pregnant.

These dogs have been side-by-side 24/7. Harley is about 6 weeks pregnant. She is huge now and its challenging for her get around. Harley is one of the most timid and gentle pits i have ever met. Sadie Mae has been obviously the dominate one of the 2.

Last week while playing around they started to growl, an show teeth. i seperated them and forgot all about it. couple days later, Sadie was playing w/Harley owner and Harley became aggressive and attacked Sadie. we got them apart and there was a little blood. I bathed them. she licked each others wounds and all was good. Til the next day, i wasnt in the room so i am not sure what happened but this time they attacked each other. Not stopping locking on to each other. it took everybit of 7 minutes to get them apart.

They both were tore up. it was brutal and altho they were fighting we were aggressively breaking it up.
I was in shock and almost sick. it took EVERYTHING we had to get them apart. The wounds of round 2 were way worse. After cleaning them up. i seperated them and still have them apart. My dogs are not people aggressive- even while breaking them up. Sudenly they have developed severe aggression against each other. Will this ever change? i am hoping after Harley has her pups she will be less aggressive.

My confusion comes from not understanding how this happened. i am praying it is b/c of the pregnancy.

Is it true once they have fought....they always will?

I Love these dogs and my house is almost too small to keep them apart.

Thanks-
