Three dogs were harmonious; Loli was the second to arrive. After the new year she suddenly keeps biting the first dog (a Golden Retriever) on the ear; the Golden doesn’t fight back, just howls. Now she does it anytime, day or night, circling and biting the left ear until it bleeds and swells. She even bites it when strangers come or when we return.
Common reasons a dog persistently bites another include territorial protection, pain or discomfort, grudges, and defending social status. Dogs are social; a dog may attack to protect territory or assert higher rank, and may hold a grudge after past fights. Separate them or seek a professional trainer if it continues.
Why does my own native dog bite its owner?

When afraid or over-excited - such as in unfamiliar surroundings - the dog may bite defensively, perceiving threats everywhere.
