Bully dog? Please help me. :(?

My best friend has a chocolate lab (18 weeks, female) and a boxer/hound (16 weeks, male). The lab is LOADS bigger than the hound, not in height or length but in stature - she's a lot stronger and more 'buff' than him. She totally uses this to her advantage: when they're eating, she likes to go to his bowl and push him out of the way to eat from it, and growls at him when he tries to take it back; it's this way with bones and treats, too. Is there any way she can break the lab of this or is it a phase that she'll grow out of? Please help me!!Bully dog? Please help me. :(?
Well, for one thing, the boxer will probably end up much bigger and will bust her chops one day! But that could end up badly, so try this:

The owner should be alone with the 'bully' dog, or at least with no other animals around, and get down to her eye level. Then you look the dog straight in the eyes, calm and non-threatening, and refuse to look away. You may have to make the dog keep looking at you. Keep on staring at her. She will probably try to look away; don't let her. Eventually, she will drop her head and lay it on the floor. This is you becoming the dominant, or alpha, personality. After this you will be better able to train and discipline the dog, and should have no trouble teaching her to not bully the other dog. It takes a little patience, but it works, and is completely non-physical.

Best wishes!
They can learn to eat in the same room, at the same time and from "their" own bowl. They can also learn to sit and not be grabby when treats are being offered. But your friend has to take control and train. Right now the lab has the control, and if the friend allows it to continue, the lab will always bully because she learns that its acceptable.Bully dog?

Yeah, It's called training. Don't mean to sound like a smart *** but it's pretty simple. Separate them for now while there eating. And yes, the'll grow out of it. The're both still puppies. One of them will be pack leader and the other one will know it.
She needs to start telling the dog No when it does something bad. If she feeds them in seperate dishes that would also help.Bully dog? Please help me. :(?
First of all don't feed them together. Also you need to let her know that you are the leader not her and that her behavior is unacceptable. There are many ways to do this, look up dog behavior on the Internet or consult a professional.
You can feed them separately, I have a lapso apso 5 year old ( approx. 12 lbs. ) and a Siberian Husky pup will be a year old in April ( approx. 50 lbs. ) and the puppy bullies the older dog, I started early on making the big pup lay down to play with the smaller dog , it took awhile but now I just say lay down to play and he lays down and they wrestle around on the floor playing when I feed them I have the large pup wait in the next room while the smaller older dog eats then when he is done I tell the pup it is ok and to go eat and they change places same thing with going outside I tell the pup to wait and he sit down by the door while I let the older one out then when I let the smaller one back in I open the door wider and tell him ok and he runs out in the yard, My pup is only a bully because he is just a large puppy and my other dog is older and more mellow.
Your lab feels the need to be a dominant dog. My dog is like that too. You have to take her to some trainer where they can teach her better habits. Its pretty hard to stop a dog like that from acting that way, its just they're nature. Maybe you will just have to separate the two when they eat. It will probably only get worse as she gets older so act fast and stop it now while she's still a puppy.
She wont grow out of it, it will get worse and they will eventually fight. They need to be separated at meal times or when there is food around. She should never have been allowed to eat from the other dogs bowl, because she got away with she will keep trying. You could try putting her on a lead while they eat so she understands she is not to eat his food and eventually let her off the lead, making sure she goes nowhere near his bowl.
Well what you need to do is tell your friend to feed the dogs either in different rooms (where the door can be shut) or different times. The lab needs to be told no everytime it growls. I say the lab might grow out of it with time, but to be sure it needs to be taught that growling is not okay. Especially if there are little kids and they get in the dogs face when she eats, the dog might snap at them. So you might want to go to Petsmart or something and get a choker collar, and put a leash on her everytime she eats. If she starts growling, then pull a little on the chain causing the dog to stop what she is doing. It will prolly break the habit. Hope this helped!
I see is to be like to siblings fight. I would feed them separately and keep a close watch on them. At first it will be time consuming but it will be worth it. First I would would put a collar on him, so that when you need have control of him you can just hold on to his collar. When you see him being a bully, you just hold call or and tug on it and tell him no in a calm controlled voice. The more you catch and correct the sooner his behavior will ch age. He will not change if you don't let him know the rules and who is in charge and that is yo!

Att: You don't need to pull hard on his collar! Just a tug will do!
your friend should do what i did with my pitbulls i had a male that was 6 months old when we got him and then we got 2 8 week old puppies he growled at them every time they went to eat so we held him and made him watch them eat then when they were done we let him eat this took a while but he soon learned that if he growled at the puppies he didnt get to eat until they were done so he stopped growling at them and has been fine ever since.
They probably need to be fed separately. As far as the bones and treats go, there's no resolution except training. You need to break the girl of the habit of growling. Remember to never use your dog's name during a correction and when you tell her no, say it firmly. Otherwise this issue will get bigger and bigger.
