Oh I'm not a shady person the new owners will know every detail. That's the right thing to do. I don't lie I don't see any point in not telling the truth. Also I don't see what taking the dog to a vet would do? How would that help?
People don't understand dogs are domesticated wolves, just take the dog to a vet.
If you do decide to give him up. Please DO tell the new owners in case they have children of their own.
I wasn't gonna let him hurt my yorkie! He's a pittbull and she's tiny. I had no choice but to shove my hand in there to let make him let her go! I am not scared of him my yorkie is usually the mean one I just don't want some creeper dog fighter getting him. . I mean I live in northern ut so really it's a pretty mellow place but hopefully my sister in law will take him. . She wanted him like 3 months back and I said no
Dog* sorry, auto correct got me lol
I agree too, a hand going into the dogs mouth can't really be blamed on the dog. .. my dogs got into a fight over food, but it was how aggressive she was and how much damage she did to my other dig that ultimately caused me to rehome her.. I was afraid to even sleep in the same room as her
Remember you're pregnant. Animals a lot of times act differently around pregnancy. I wouldn't give him up just because he bit you. Maybe he thought you were taking it from him and giving it to the baby... animals do change their demeanor around pregnancy
I agree.with missymarie214
Accidents happen, if you truly feel you are unsafe with the dog then do what's best for him and Ur family... I had a pit bull and she attacked my dog only one time but it was so bad that she almost killed him, my hands slipped into her mouth on accident while trying to break it up and she broke my finger... I was so scarred by the image I had seen that I had to get rid of her. I understand if you get rid of the dog, I really do... if it's something you think you can work through, then I suggest seeing an animal behaviorist (spelling?) For better training tips.
If you put your hand in his mouth during an altercation, it's definitely not the dogs fault, and I wouldn't rehome him just for that. You definitely can't stick your hand into a dog fight.
Wait I just looked and you said he bit you and the other dog
Maybe he doesn't like other dogs how long have you had them together. And sorry I read wrong
My dog didn't bite me he bit my other dog and I had to pull him off her since he's much bigger I shoved my hand in his mouth. He'd never dare bite me he's very well mannered and I can put my hand in his bowl while he's eating and he just waits for me to move it. He's been train with an awesome trainer. It's just really hard I've never even thought about giving a dog away! Both hem are like kids to me! Maybe we will just wait and see how he does and give him another chance before we find another family...
Hun if your.still training him give him a chance he probably.didnt realize it.was.you its happened to me with my moms dog sometimes they just mistakenly bite, you know if he didnt mean it.if he puts.his tail between his legs.as.soon as he realized.what he did
My dogs no better then to bite me Sven if I touch their food while eating. I think you shouldn't give up on the dog because they are like family. My opinion take him to get trI ed before giving him up. I don't think I can ever give up my dogs they are my kids. Wishbyou the best of luck Sweety.
I'll only let him go to people I can go see their house and make sure it's all legit... my good friend is a cop so I'll be doing background checks and stuff.. he's had a few chances when he was 6 months old he bit a child and sent him to the er but it was the kid taunting him and feeding him constantly so they said it wasn't his fault... but if that was my child I don't know what I'd do??
Do you have a friend you trust who can take your dog?
You also need to be careful listening him online since he has bit you. If you Dont tell whoever gets him and he bites someone they can sue you for not disclosing that he has bit before.
Give him another chance :(
As in "Make sure when your baby is around" I mean when he/she is born.
He's been to every training I can find... he's never been food aggressive it's one of the major things in training we learned he doesn't even eat his food till I say okay.. I'm just so confused on what to do..
I say give your dog another chance. Make sure when the baby is around, you feed your animals when your baby isn't around. Most dogs WILL get territorial over there snacks/food.
Be careful where you post free dog online there's people that take them and use them as bait dogs for fighting not trying to upset you or anything but it does happen
