    ouch.. hope it wasn't a terrible bite. I bet it will take awhile. not sure if there are fila rescue people in forum that have been through this before. Having 2 dogs together is may make it more challenging

    TO start off with I would put them in dog runs and spend a few days feeding them and then if they are acting ok let them out to be around you one at a time. Put on some sun glasses the first day or two. Sit with treats, hot dogs, right next to the runs. Eh, email me and I'll call you and go over some things if you need. Please be careful, they will feed off of each other if aroused.
