Editing: Nevermind. Found the info I needed soon after posting this.
We have four dogs of varying mixed breeds and ages. They're all fairly well behaved but... Three of them seem to be fighting more and more and more. It usually starts over food or garbage they occasionally get hold of. Nasty, drag-down, knock-out fights. They are quite good with the kids, wonderful actually. But, when it comes to this fighting, they don't care who they knock over or scratch or bite to get whatever dog it was that dared to even look at the wanted morsel of food/garbage. They certainly are not starved. I know there's probably a dominance thing of some sort going on here but I've tried everything I can think of.
How can I get this to stop? I'm out of ideas and need help before someone gets hurt. Thanks!
