Answer #1

you should probably keep the baby puppy with you a lot. or when you leave your house you should probably put the puppy in your room so the big dog doesnt get ahold of her. or put the big dog on a leash outside, that way you can have the puppy with you without it getting a risk of getting killed.

Answer #2

Pit Bulls are very territorial. the fact that both of them are females is one problem espically if the older one is in heat. It is that time of the year you know.

Answer #3

This doesn’t sound like a good situation…some dogs, not just Pits are puppy aggressive…and they will kill a pup. Your female sounds like she is one of those. There’s very little you can do, but keep them separated forever…Pits were bred to fight other dogs…the best bred Pits in the world will be people friendly and dog aggressive…add puppy aggressive, and you’ve got a problem ever having two dogs.

Answer #4

Thats probley not a good idea because if your older pitt is trying to nip and get at the puppy then it will probleey attack. I’m not saying pitbulls are bad dogs but they do have that mean streak in there blood. everone I know that has a pitbull only has one and if they have two then they were raised togeather because if there puppies togeather they will have to bond togeather and they will like eachother. I’m not saying get rid of the puppie but slowley introduce them. Thats what my mom always says shes a vet lool.
