Last week, Cory and Brown Dog (the foster) got into a fight, and Cory has a big gash on his snout that required stitches and he also had part of his lower eyelid torn off.
Tonight, as I was sitting watching NCIS on DVR, I hear'd the dogs a-barking again. I could tell this was a fightin bark, so I ran to the back door to break it up. Through the back window, I saw Shosty and Riley barking and nipping and jumping on Brown Dog (Shosty and Riley don't know how to fight, so I'm sure they just thought they were playing). By the time I go out the back door, Cory and Brown Dog were up on their hind legs bitin at each other. Cory has a couple cuts on is ear and Brown Dog has a cut on his snout and on his gum --- the cuts on both dogs are superficial.
In the house, Cory will walk by Brown Dog and stop and stare him down til Brown Dog starts to growl. I'm 98% sure that Cory starts these fights. He also gets into fights with Dani's sister's male dog. Shosty had no problem with Brody (sister's dog) nor does he have any problem with Brown Dog. Brown Dog is a giant scaredy cat. Nonetheless, Dani is all pissed with Brown Dog because of the fights. What's worse is that she contacted the Humane Society, who we're fostering through, and said that Brown Dog needs to go because he doesn't get along well with Cory. HS said they have no where for him to go
.
I feel sad for Brown Dog because he gets picked on by Cory and there is no where else for him to go. We also figure it'll be difficult for him to get adopted out because he is so afraid of things. He has a nervous bladder, so when he gets in trouble, he pees (even when for peeing on things --- lol). Poor Brown Dog.
/back story: Dani = gf; Shosty = my 5 year old male black lab; Riley = my 3 year old female black lab; Cory = Dani's 9 year old Catahoula; Brody = a fat-arsed male black lab
