One is 5 and the other is 2. Could they live more peacefully together if only one was fixed? They have lived together since the 2 year old was a puppy and the fighting has only begun fairly recently.

Having two same sex Shar peis in the same house is like living with nitor around. You are seeing same sex aggression and it is very common in many breeds.
Sahr Peis are one breed that I would NEVER recommend having two dogs of the same sex in the same house as one will most likely kill the other before the fighting stops.
This s a dominant assertive breed of dog and they can fight until one kills the other.
Neutering only one even both most likey will not slove your problem. If you are going to have two you need one female and one male both fixed.
For your peace and the happiness of the dogs you may want to place one and get a female and have both dogs fixed. That cuts down on the fighting.
Since these two have reached sexual maturity they are fighting for the dominant position in the house and neutering one will not stop the fights. Neutering they both may not either.
Our rescue never places two dogs of the same sex in the same household. We rescue Dobermans and they do best in male/female pairs and most will not tolerate another of the same sex in the same house.

Unfortunatly in my expierence once two dog's start fighting it's over..They should never be trused alone together..
Once the line is crossed (so to speak) it's almost impossible to go back even fixing them both probaly won't solve thing's :(
Unless you can put extensive behavior training in to them both you'll probaly have to keep them seperate or place one..
I'm sure that's not the answer you we're looking for but also rember their good sized dog's & I'm sure could do a LOT of damage to each other & not to mention you if you have to break them up & even if you thinktheir no way eather one would ever hurt you if their in a fight & you'r hand happen's to get in the way look out !! They won't stop & try & figure out if it's you or the other dog..
Be Carefull & Good Luck

The Shar-Pei has been used as a fighting dog, so rather fix both of them. As they've also been known to be an extremely dominant, controlling, moody breed, if that doesn't sort it out you may have to look at training both of them intensely.

He has have been given a element Gart. If all of us used produce that became in season too it might help with worldwide warming as gasoline does not be mandatory to delivery out of season stuff. I take excitement in that there are some human beings although who won't be able to take care of to pay for sparkling produce or are actually not cookery minded so as that they'll motel to applying packets and tins. Time too performs a factor with maximum folk of Mums working at present. i for my area in basic terms like applying sparkling. specific, it could be very exciting to be sure Delia on the F notice lol !!!!

Whatever sex they are the two year old is now becoming sexually mature and is standing up for itself, staking it's place, it may or may not pass but I would neuter them both, if not both then the puppy.

are they both males or both females? I would get them both fixed if I were you, if they are males. I don't know if 2 females would get along no matter what. Those dogs tend to not enjoy the company of other dogs

I think the younger one might be trying to challenge the older for his "spot" in the family. try to treat them as equals. dont favor one or the other.
but get them both fixed at the same time. the fighting needs to be addressed correctly. what triggers it? who triggers it? do you stop it right away?

It certainly won't be instant and you will have to get them both done. Not just one. You will also have to go through some behavior modification with both.
