my pals patterdale barks when we cross fence or wall, she appears to be the dominant dog in our small pack of 4 terriers but when the barking escalates my smaller patterdale bitch challenges her and a full blown fight ensues. The smaller dog comes out on top but the next time they meet the same thing happens again and again.

 

what's going on?

 

Any advice would be appreciated

Could be an anxiety thing (has the dog ever injured him self or fell from a high wall) the other dog attack because his confused with behavior or sees it as a weekness. A bit like when a dog has a fit and some dogs will have a go.

Your friend should try the dog in his garden going over small obstacles for treats slowly building up his confidence

Happy Hunting
