This takes one person per dog.
Each person grabs a dog by the hocks and, pretending the dog is a
wheelbarrow, goes backwards, away from the other dog.
When you have them seperated far enough that they aren't arousing each other
any longer, they will settle down.
If you condition a dog by going all Alpha on it the first time it even hints
that it's going to push a button, they become very nice, compliant animals.
Leica never pushed me, Rollie hinted just once that he might like to try me,
but he was easily distracted and I never put him into that situation again,
and he was easygoing enough that he never felt the need to really push
matters again.
Jester, at 5 months of age decided that he was going to go Rottweiler on me.
I made him as aware of the depth of his misjudgement as I could, and he
hasn't been a problem for me since.
Unfortunately, he has figured out that he can push other peoples' buttons,
and I am having a harder time with that. He's quite the little asshole,
actually.
Fun, and an impressive dog, but quite a knob.
