Weird Link with Dogs Falling out

OK, here's one that I've not heard of before, so would be interested to see whether anyone else has come across it.

Over the 6 months we've had Stumpy, her and Hoki have sporadic fall outs where they're grumpy with each other and the slightest little thing will spark off a fight.

Now one spell was when Stumpy was in season, but last month I started to think about the frequency and today has confirmed it.....

I'm pretty sure tha Hoki & Stumpy fall out when I have a period.

That is weird. My 2 fall out like this and I have been trying to thing what starts it off.
As they have both been spayed and it is only Dori (goldie) that gets assy with Katie I though maybe she still gets the grumpy side of her season but without the season if it is possible for her to have it, as it is normally a few days every month.
Will have to try and remember to put it on the calender so I can keep track.

Would definitely be interested to hear whether it is the same at yours as well

Interesting but I guess its more than possible
You will be different so the dogs will pick up on that
Also I have seen that some of the bitches here get far more sarky when another bitch is in heat (not that I am calling you names )

Brings PMT to a whole other level, doesn't it?!
I've no doubt that they'd smell the hormone changes in us from month to month. I suppose it could have effects on "the pack".
