Maizey- the dog next door. Big Maizey- Her big brother. I don't know his name, so I call him "Big Maizey." They have two very different fighting styles which depend on their strengths and weaknesses. Maizey is fast and the smaller of the two, but when push comes to shove, her brother will often knock her over with his superior strength. She's also stubborn- once she's got him on the ground, he's not gonna be allowed to get up any time soon. Big Maizey mostly depends on his strength and size. When he was trapped on the ground by his sister, he locked his front legs around her neck and brought her down too so he could get up.
Another difference between the two is how they react to a human who is speaking dog. Maizey almost immediately accepted that, hey, I speak dog so I must be a dog. Big Maizey thought so too, but instead of mimicking my movements and accepting my invitation to play as Maizey often does, he barked back at me, as if saying, "you are a strange human."
It is hilarious to see them lock jaws and try to get the better of one another by twisting their heads. Although, when you see flashing white teeth and hear snarls, you can't help but wonder of they're actually hurting each other.
