subject: An issue

As some of you may (and most of you may not) be aware, I have ten dogs.  All but one
black lab mixes, and all but one of those are blood relatives (father and
seven pups - that
are 2.5 years old now).

The one that is not a lab was attacked by the others (after six months in
the 'family')
Saturday night.  Had I not arrived home when I did they'd have killed her.  As it is
the vet bill may go well into four digits.  As I type this she's been at
the vet's since 
yesterday (Sunday) afternoon and is scheduled for surgery today.

The issue is that once she has recovered I have to find her another home. 
I can't keep
her with the others any longer, and I only have one kennel enclosure. 
She's black and
white, a bit smaller than an adult lab, 35-40 pounds, and appears to be a
heeler/lab mix,
or a border collie/heeler/lab mix (somebody dumped her out here in the
sticks six months
ago and I took her in, so I have no idea as to her ancestry).  She appears
to be 2-3 years
old.

Anybody have any suggestions?

Anybody have a clue why, after six months or slightly more, the other dogs
would suddenly
attack and try to kill her?
