haha, JT - you partially hit a nail on the head. they both think they should be alpha (the boxer and the pug) to some extent. my gf knows this about the pug too... it's funny. both her pugs are female, yet the one who got attacked tries to hump the other female pug. and she marks too.... with one rear leg up. it's bizarre. i think she got knocked down a few notches, though.

i have 2 cats too, and they rule the roost when they're up from the basement. the pugs have never bothered them, but both boxers have scars from the swipes. (cats aren't declawed)

squee, that's khloie exactly. she once slipped past me as i was walking out the door, and at that exact point a guy was walking a dog on our sidewalk. khloie bolted straight for the dog and instantly started attacking her. luckily i got there FAST and lifted her off the dog by the back of her neck. i wouldn't dare take her to a dog park (yet), as i know she'd attack everything she could. i'm going to slowly try and socialize her with other dogs starting tomorrow. a friend is bringing her big black pitbull mix to a park (neutral territory), and i'll start with khloie on her back and let the other dog spend a lot of time sniffing her. she should be plenty uncomfortable, but that's the point. overstimulation. once she's comfortable around samson, i'll bring another dog over, and another, and just keep doing that.
