We are baby sitting the blue pitbull (Blue) and my other boy (Bailey) and girl (Bella) never sound like this when they play together. Are they trying to show their dominance to Blue because he is a new visitor?

Dogs make all sorts of crazy noises, hard to tell what's friendly or not on someone else's dog but I wouldn't allow 2 way tug, much less 3, far too easy for it to go from fun to killing each other and breaking up a 3 way dog fight is not going to be fun or pretty. Honestly having resources like toys around at all with multiple pit bulls is asking for trouble, throwing a new dog into the mix with that is a bad idea. Offtopic, why are half of blue pit bull owners so damn useless when it comes to naming their dog? The number of blue dogs name Blue is just retarded.

I would definitely stop allowing them to all play tug like that.. you're on the way to have a full blown fight on your hands by the sound of that. I will *sometimes* let two of mine play tug together, but they are immediately stopped if they make ANY noise.

I agree with Goingpostal. While it's hard to tell what is friendly and what isn't, allowing them to tug is asking for trouble IMO. It could escalate from play to a downright brawl.

if you read their body language, you will see that it doesn't seem playing. I think it is one of them trying to show "this is my toy back off!" I agree with the others to be SAFE take away the rope..

I saw a couple points in there where it looked like your girl Bella was getting a little angry and it was starting to escalate a little beyond play and more into competition. I'd probably keep the tugging with two dogs max. Just play tug with Blue by himself.

There's a little too much tension in that group for my liking, and it's not even the sound that worries me! My dogs sound like they're killing each other when they play... but body language gives away that it's all just play sounds with mine. With that group you have - I fully believe that the blue dog is going to stop going for the tug and grab another dog if you let them continue playing like that.

Can you set up a spring pole? That way you can let each dog tug on their own, and avoid fights (or let your two tug if they don't get amped up like that, and give the blue something to tug with)
