Puppy was just annoying the fuck out of the GSD. GSD looks at owner a couple of times, that's the "you're the leader, could you fuckin' deal with this please" look. Since the hooman didn't intervene, GSD finally put puppy in his place the way dogs understand. Didn't use any more aggression than necessary, then went submissive - that body language was for the hooman, not the puppy.
GSD "stressed"......no. Annoyed, yes. "Stressed" you would see the ears start to do wierd shit and kind of flatten out, maybe some hair standing up. |

What would happen in a wild dog pack with two alpha dogs in one pack? They figure shit out, 99% of the time without serious injury.
This is an entire world different from dogs that are abused and tortured and then trained to fight....dogs baring teeth and snapping and growling within a social group is just another form of communication. Sometimes it kicks off a fight but most of the time it doesn't. The pup was just being a pest because he was bored. There is absolutely no malice displayed in that video on either side. You guys need to relax. |

We let my gf and her daughter leave to go shopping, and the daughter's husband and myself let the 3 dogs out together. The little dog went after the big one who snarled at the little dog and started chasing her. They went around the yard half a dozen times w/ the big alpha chasing the smaller dog and nipping at her. When they got done we had no more problems. But when this happened both sets of dogs had a human there watching who could deal w/ them. Dogs are generally smart enough to know when to back down and they do once the posturing is over. Mostly...

I'm curious what is up with that immediate laying down, head down move the older dog did once the pup fell over. Was it being submissive or apologizing? I don't know these things. We have two pugs and they're retarded most of the time. |

Wow. That is exactly how my mal acted when young. Nonstop energy and playing until the switch went off and she was asleep for hours. Then up and going crazy.
This thread is gold. The dogs are just bashing four what is expected behavior from the lil mal. The GSD hit his limit and let him know. That point will likely never be reached again without mutual participation. It’s an important function of a pack |

Girlfriend had a Dutch Shepherd -- not the one that bit me unprovoked. When I first starting going over to her house, he'd look at me like he wanted to kill me so I'd tell him to go to bed, and he'd do it. Then, I'd go play with him in the yard, throwing his toys for him to retrieve. Whenever he looked at me like he wanted to kill me, I'd give him a command -- usually it would just be to go to bed and as he approached his bed, begrudgingly, I'd call him back over to me. After doing that every time I'd come over, he never gave me those looks again and would walk with his head pressed against my leg.
But... in spite of all that, that other one did the exact same thing as that one @TheGreatCornholio described. No warning, just fucking went all land shark on my leg. Someone here once said that they demand a lot of work and if you don't work them that they get neurotic and bite people. That has been my experience. |

This! Most people don't know shit about dog behavior. This video is why I keep my mouth shut when people say, "oh my dog/kid got bit by a dog and he wasn't doing anything to the dog...." These idiots probably think this puppy wasn't really doing anything either... The adult GSD is very well mannered, smart understanding. That's a game the owner needs to immediately stop! That isn't funny at all, they needed to immediately correct the pup before the adult feels it needs to correct the pup. That pup will get emboldened as it gets older and the adult doesn't see that as a game or as cute or funny. What happens when the pup is old enough that it doesn't feel it needs to back down and these two dogs work it out themselves? Will this behavior be funny then? Quote HistoryQuoted:

We had to muzzle our male GSD for 2 days when we brought our female Mal/GSD mix home since he only wanted to kill her when they met. They still go at it 4 years later every now and then, irresistible force vs immovable object. They are best friends but only they can mess with each other, they’ll tag team anyone else 2 or 4 legs.
