I have a 3 year old german shepherd who is a czech dog. Her father is a very good police dog. Shes a very dominant dog. She gets along with some dogs that are submissive to her. But if a dog trys to get rough with her she will hammer into them hard and usually just beat the living crap out of them. Not pups. These are other big dogs like dobies, rotties that have gone after her she has just attached onto them and tore into them. Of course its not ideal but we dont live in a perfect world and she is who she is. She also took down a coyote once and tried to rip its head off. Shes well trained on all commands.
Since i got her she has lived with my fat calico rescue for a long time. She showed interest from the start but not once barked or tried to hurt her. All she wants to do is lick the cat. i ma extremly strict with her and will make her back off a lot of times. But the cat has no fear of her at all?? its been years with them living together. At first the cat was terrified/horrified of her as she is with all dogs but over time she turned fearless.
But what scares me a bit is how brave the cat is around her the cat will just wack the crap out of her with her claws and puff her tail up. My dog responds by doing nothing just wagging her tail and usualy gets happy. I have seen a few blisters in my dogs face cause of this. IF a dog did this or even a wild animal she would have tore them to shreds? SHE does know that the cat means more to me than life so if she hurt the cat id hang her.
She loves to lick the cat the cat likes it sometimes but when shes had enough she will just wack her.
SHould i just let them sort it out after all these years of living together even if the cats tail sometimes buffs up as long as my dog doesnt show aggression? EVEN tho i know she has extreme monster potential?
ONe time i was cooking and a piece of food dropped on the floor my dog went for it and the cat then went for it and drove the dog off. It was a piece salad so neither animal wanted it but i was just so shocked.
I notice they only act like fools around me when im not around or spying on them they sit there calm and do nothing even side by side
