My dogs got into a nasty fight with each other a few weeks ago. I tried pepper spray and it didn't even slow them down.

I had to hit one with a broom handle several times before he even realized he was hit. That dog adrenline keeps them going.

And yes, I am working with them, training wise. They are just two big males from the same litter, and each wants to be top dog.

Waaay back when, Heloise (remember her and her hints?) had someone suggest soaking a rag with household ammonia and dangling it, using a stick, between the fighting animals. I'd be curious if this had more effect than the pepper.

Neutering them both will be necessary to living together if they are this aggressive.
