First of all, thank you for having the courage to bring this topic up. It's something any one of us could be faced with. My Eddie, in fact, has attacked other dogs viciously before, and I've addressed it, but it could have been me making the same post your are.
My advice would be to consult a licensed behaviorist as soon as possible. They are terribly expensive, because they are doctors, but your case is definitely about abnormal behavior. Even if you separate the dog, it is likely to happen again. If money's an issue, I'll donate and help take up a collection to help you out. But I see that as your best option.
I suppose an excellent private trainer might help if the cost is prohibitive, and you might want to start there. But I think a good behaviorist is your best bet.
Good luck, and please keep in touch. If there have been hurtful responses here keeping you from posting again, PM me. I'm very interested. |
I just saw this thread. Mike it is a great suggestion!
To OP I am so sorry for your loss. I cant even imagine how you feel
I would definitely suggest what alaskayorkie suggested. Keep your dogs seperated all the time but meanwhile you really need to see behaviorist and trainers otherwise just by keeping them seperated it wont fix the aggression. I hope everything works out.
