You are so welcome! I would encourage you to go thru doggie training (if you haven't done so yet) with your dog/doggies and learn what you can about their instincts and behaviors. It took me a long time to figure out (with the help of some friends) that a lot of what goes on is instinctual in nature, and how we act and interact with our pups makes a big difference.
There is a book, oh, gee, something by the Monks of Skete about being your dog's best friend, that I would love for every dog owner to read. Because it talks about the nature of dogs, and how that has to interact with the nature of humans.
Oh, well, just a thought.
I hope all of your pups and YOU are ok!!

P.S. Watch out for those dog treats! Some are made with not good ingredients, and the 'rawhide' ones may expand in your pup's tummy to a most uncomfortable level. As gross as it sounds, 'hooves' are probably safer than anything, as far as I know. Like sterilized cow hooves. (I know, ick...)
