Boston Terrier being agressive towards my Lab

I have three dogs, two boston's and one Lab. My female is in heat and my male BT is very aggressive towards my Lab. Is this normal? This is her second heat cycle and would really like to breed the two BT's.

Your male BT being aggressive toward your lab while your female BT is in heat is very normal. You will need to watch them very close while she is in heat. Is the lab a male? Neutered? My male BT goes insane during our female's heat cycle. If there is another male around, I make sure to keep them apart. We went to the dog park (left the female at home) and he still went crazy. The male he was aggressive to was not neutered but he was sterile. We decided to keep him under close supervision while she was in heat. He always had one of us doing nothing but watching him while he was out of his crate. Luckily it only lasts for a short 3 WEEKS! It seemed like forever! You might want to enlist some family help in watching your lab and your BTs while you mate the two BTs. If the lab is not fixed, you might end up with Labstons or Bostadors. Your female can have puppies from both males in the same litter.
