[quote=Anonymous]Any advice? Any recs for trainers or someone we may look to?

We have two 3 year old mutts. Love them both to pieces and they are usually best buds and well behaved. However, since we brought our daughter home 8 weeks ago the lab mix has attacked the beagle mix unprovoked 3 times.  Twice in the living room near where baby was napping and once in the kitchen during dinner. The last time the beagles ear got bit and we spent some time in the emergency vet.  I can't pinpoint a trigger for either of the three fights.  The beagle was minding his own business all three times.  Twice food was near. Twice the baby was near. I (mom) was around for all three - the only common denominator I can think of. I've had dogs all my life but this I cannot figure out.  They get less attention since we brought baby home but not dramatically so.  Things go back to normal eventually after the fights and then another fight happens. We've tried yelling no, favoring the beagle immediately after the incidents, etc.

TIA for any help someone may have. [/quote]
