I have three BMC puppies that are about four months old. I have them in a 25'x25' pen together. The problem is that one of the pups is trying to kill another pup. It will lock down on the pup like it is a hog and know the other pup is attacking the pup also. I took the pup that was getting his butt kicked and put it in my kennel by himself. Should I seperate the dogs for good? What do i need to do with the pup that is so aggressive towards the other one?

This is pretty common...do as the other poster mentioned and separate the boys and girls...This should stop most of it, although I have seen some of the girls and boys go at it too..

At my house, I like to pen the fussy pups with an older dog so they can learn some manners. They all have to get along eventually so they may as well learn early

i like your approach muleman not too experienced but it sounds to me like the dogs might even help you cull a little bit
