Blu and our other dog Pinwa used to get along and then Blu started showing aggression towards Pinwa who is older. We have an acre of land and she loves to run. She has unexpectedly pulled me to the ground if she sees a squirrel and I don't. She is a hunter. Not fully trained. She used to role her eyes at me when I would tell her to sit before she went outside. I think she is 3 or 4 with teenagers attitude. She loves people, I'm just getting too old for such a young strong dog and we are having to keep the dogs apart.
