I took them both out the front to let them go to the toilet and Ja Ja started growling at him and wouldnt let him move, I grabbed Ja Ja and reprimanded him again, but he just got more aggressive.
My partner is not really being that helpful about this and I am only a small person so its a pretty big feat for me to pull Ja Ja off Bruce!
I want to get Ja Ja de-sexed but my partner wont as he wants to breed from him (even though we were told by the vet that he will probably be infertile as he had some infections in his I LOVE DOGS!I LOVE DOGS!I LOVE DOGS!I LOVE DOGS!I LOVE DOGS! when he was young and still gets them now sometimes).
Can anyone please help me as I cannot leave them together anymore!
I dont know why this has happened as they are usually best of freinds and do everything together and Bruce is ver upset about the whole thing as he is pining for his mate!
Again, i ask PLEASE help me!!

Anyways, I took Bruce away for a few hours and my partner took Ja Ja for a walk to try to calm him down and when he came back with him, they were okay for a bit then he started it again, so we separated them again and left Ja Ja in the backyard and had Bruce inside the house.
After a bit, I brough Ja Ja in on his lead and tried to get this all patched up, I made them sit together on their rug but they wouldnt look at each other and every time Ja Ja went to move Bruce started cowering and trying to hide behind me.

Now, Bruce has had a pretty tough life before I got him and he is a very timid dog at the best of times, and he knows that Ja Ja is the dominate male and Bruce submitted straight away when Ja Ja became aggressive again, but it didnt stop him and he went to fight him again.
I have never has this problem before, Ja Ja has never and I mean never attacked another dog, let alone his best mate!
I thought it might be because he is still a male and there might be a bitch around on heat, but I dont know.

I took Bruce away and put him in the house and went back outside to figure out why this happened because when I was out there I was playing the Ja Ja and Bruce was on the gras roling around in something and wasnt even trying to get my attention.
Ja Ja become aggressive towards me, so i repremanded him and he submitted straight away, but when I went to let him into the house as well, he became aggressivve towars Bruce again.

Hi all,

I have had Bruce for a few years now and we got Ja Ja he was a pup and now he is 2. They are the best of friends and wont let each other out of their sight (which I think is great), but yesterday when I playing woth the Ja Ja attacked Bruce! (he didnt hurt him, just scared the crap out of me and Bruce!
