Hi Im JR and our puppy Meeko

[meeko1225]

Hello everyone, new to the forum obviously. Im excited to learn the ways into being a good owner and friend to our new puppy Meeko. Currently, i live in South Jersey. Ive always loved larger breeds, meaning medium to large dogs. I always wanted to watch a puppy grow from a small puppy into a big dog. That's why i am so excited to see how Meeko grows. I will need help and I'm sure everyone here can help. Meeko is currently at 3 months old. Here is a picture of our bundle of joy.

Hello everyone, new to the forum obviously. I just wanna say that I'm excited to learn the ways into being a good owner and friend to our new puppy Meeko but being fair to our male pitt Tiger that had been the baby for 2 years in the household. Currently, i live in South Jersey. Our bullies stay at my girlfriend's house and they're fine for the most part, except when they play fight a lot, everyday actually. Can someone tell me if that is normal for 2 male dogs. Tiger is neutered and Meeko isn't yet. Is there some kind of dominance issues going on? Tiger gets annoyed but he doesn't really bite Meeko but he does nibble. Meeko in the other hand bites Tiger around the neck area and sometimes Tiger would squeal. When that happens, i break them apart and try and calm them down. They only do this when they are in the house. Can someone tell me a way that i can fix this problem. I don't want them play fighting all the time because i feel like its gonna get out of hand one day and Im not going to be prepared for it. Please reply any suggestion on this post. Thank you for taking time to read, and Im happy to say that I'm glad that i joined this forum! Here are pictures of Tiger and Meeko!

Additional about ourselves: Im 23 years old and currently working as data entry for a Nursing Agency in Philadelphia, PA. I am at work most of the day from 10-7. My girlfriend in the other hand is 21 years old and she is still in school. She's with our dogs most of the day and week but i try my hardest to with them as much as i can. It's hard when i get out of work that late. I only get to see them after work and most of the weekends. I thank my girlfriend so much for taking care of them, I know its really hard to take care of a puppy when its biting everything in the house, potty training, feeding and etc. She has so much patience, but i hope she understand that i really try to help her whenever i can. The dogs usually stay at her house but we're gonna try doing alternate days. She will bring Meeko to my house a couple of days a week. We would bring Tiger to my house but he jumps at people when is excited and sometimes barks at other dogs. I have 3 small dogs at my house (2 pekingese and maltese). Hope this plan works out for both Tiger and Meeko. Thanks taking the time to read. Just wanted to share some things about us.
