A month ago, they were fighting so much we had to muzzle them when they were in the same room.
What changed?
A slow transition to unmuzzled company.
Daily exercise.
Firm but loving handling: sitting before going out a door, sitting before feeding, etc.
Immediately redirecting any aggressive behavior.
Lots of positive reinforcement of good behavior.
Dogs are a lot like humans!
Dogs would rather be part of the family than fight, and will model what is modeled for them. Kids, on the other hand, have iPads.

I agree that dogs and humans have similarities – and we Cesar Milan’s ideas for parenting workshops – like how Cesar it’s the dog owners need training – so do parents!
And children are like dogs in the way we need exercise (or move time) – sunshine – food – attention – etc.
