Hey there, Kristin.
Because you’re dealing with four dogs, the dynamics of the situation are going to be pretty complex. So, your current approach (keeping them separated) is likely the easiest and safest solution.
You could reach out to a trainer or certified dog behavior consultant to try to establish some domestic harmony, but it’s not going to be a quick fix.
You may also want to check out our article about living with dogs who don’t get along — it focuses on management techniques rather than behavioral modification.
Best of luck!
We hope that works out well for you, DP! Let us know how it goes.
]]>Hey, Michael.
Probably not in this context. Ultimately, the best solution may just be to prevent them from seeing animals outside by using curtains, window films, or other types of barriers.
But if that doesn’t work, you may need to reach out to a certified dog behavior consultant.
Best of luck!
