Oh dear, that is a problem.  It can be so hard to teach sharing.
 
Have you tried scruffing her, and dragging her (gently!) on the floor?
This method is effective, although it may be hard on the 'older' ones.
Please don't be tempted to flick her on the nose...negative reinforcement
simply doesn't work, and may cause fear and resentment.
 
Perhaps a time-out would be the best option.  I hope you have a very
large crate.............
 
ROFLMAO
