We have three, count them, three little sheep toys that I bought for Daisy, because she likes the sheep. Taffy has about 50 bobos and other toys she likes. So of course, the minute Daisy actually takes an interest in these sheep, Taffy wants them. Daisy has been putting up with this for quite a while.
This morning, Taffy had one with her one the bed, and was having dh throw it to her. She got it, but Daisy made it clear she wanted it. They both went into the other room. I was laying on the bed, having my dh use the massager on my aching back, and about 5 minutes later, all hell breaks loose. They both come tumbling out in the hall, growling and fighting. We jumped up to break it up. I grabbed Daisy by the tail, but he reaches down between them. I yelled at him to get his hand out out there...duh...he's on blood thinners. Don't put your hand by their mouths. I kept pulling, and we finally got them seperated. A quick inspection didn't show blood dripping from anywhere, so we put them in their crates for 10 minutes to cool off, and went back to my back.
I looked Taffy over first, and found blood on the side of her neck, but she wasn't cut. I lifted her ear, and that's where it was coming from,...a couple of nicks there. I cleaned her up, wiped her down with peroxide, which her shook off and tried to lick. I told her knock it off, I didn't need her throwing up on me, too. Once she was clean and sterilized, I put anticeptic cream on there, and back in the crate she went.
Next came Daisy. She is free of injury, giving worse than she received, I guess. But they both lost the little sheep :holyshp: :sosad: because they couldn't learn to share. They are doing an hour of time out.
Mindy tried to console them some, but is enjoying her freedom on daddy's bed.
