overly aggressive dog could be a threat


Question Posted Thursday November 22 2007, 3:02 pm

about 4 years ago, i got a dog for my birthday. a chihuahua. a male.

it was really nice as a puppy and everything was fine. now, he's a fucking retarded aggressive shit.
he bites me and barks at me for no fucking reason, at MY house. IN MY FUCKING HOUSE. I can't even go in my room without it barking at me.

it doesn't bark at my mom and my dad and my sister. but it bites and hurts and scratches me whenever I pass by.

we can't even touch it without it growling. it just does NOT let you touch it. and ITS SO SMALL! and the worst part, is that this insignificant little piece of shit has to have a MUZZLE on whenever we take it to the vet! It's fucking WILD

I don't know what to do.

My parents protect it. they're like...all defensive towards it. I don't think it's right that I have to live in a house and constantly be harassed and bitten by a dog that I CHOSE that I BOUGHT AND SAVED with my OWN money.

hell, my cats are nicer than him...

what the hell am I supposed to do?

I'm 16/f. My finger's throbbing right now from trying to get through to my OWN yard and my dog bit me.

And when you hit him and discipline him, he barks and bites back!
I don't know WHAT to do. Advice please?
I asked my parents to put him to sleep, but then the defensive shit kicks in...

I mean, I love animals. Please don't get me wrong. But this one's just abusive.

Also, do nottttt hit your dog. That's what is making him agressive. That's probably why he doesn't like you and he's so agressive towards you- because you hit him. Just say "NO" firmly, and point your finger at him. Never hit him. That won't help WHATSOEVER. That just makes it worse. You have to let him know he can trust you, so never ever hurt him.

if you really wanna put it to sleep, explain why to your parents, or also, do what the other girl said. let him out and bite someone so the animal control will have to put him to sleep. or buy him a cage that he cant fit through and whenever company or somebody special that he might bite is over--put him in the cage. hope i helped!

No, no, no. Don't let him out to bite neighbors, as the other columnist says. Not only will he have to be put to sleep, but your parents will get sued. Most importantly, that means someone would get hurt, maybe even a small child. Bad idea.

Best thing I can tell you to do in your situation is to save up some money and send him to a dog obedience trainer. I say you, because you are the one who got him in the first place- technically he is your dog. However, since your parents seem to really care about this little guy, you should talk to them about meeting you halfway in the cost.

Since I'm sure your vet knows how he is, I would ask them for a referral to a good trainer.

Not only is it not fair to you that he is mean to you, but it is not fair to him that he feels he needs to act so defensive towards you, his master. Obedience training can help you both.

If it gets that bad I suggest you let it out "accidentilly" and when it bites someone animal control has to put it to sleep.
