Our 3 year old dog runs away and gets in fights with other dogs. We don’t understand this mysterious behavior.

Full Question:
We have a spayed female shepherd/lab mix named Sandy. We got her from these people at 1 year old, now she is 3. Every since we got our 7 month old husky puppy, Zoe, she has been acting weird. When we first got her, she ran away a lot, but was friendly to dogs. Now she runs away and picks fights. Her last fight we saw. We witnessed her in a yard and the dog that lived there sniffed her for a greeting and then Sandy just started fighting. She came home with a bitten ear and now she is starting to fight with Zoe, our puppy. Now we are afraid to keep her. What is going on and what can we do???

You do not fit the definition of “a responsible pet owner.” Find a home for both dogs and get a house plant.
