Is this Turtle or Duckie?

DorkyYorkies · 04-09-2008, 11:49 AM

Yes, it's Turtle. He is VERY aggressive and bites my daughter and attacks my other dogs, as well as Duckie for no given reason. I did some research and found out he came from a puppy mill in Oklahoma and was purchased from Petland here in GA. The people that I bought him from told me they got both him and Duckie from a very reputable breeder and I trusted them. Duckie's background check is fine and she is an absolute sweetheart. I am not pleased that I was lied to about the whole situation. I think that is probably why they were selling him. I might just adopt him out because he needs to go to a home where he will be neutered and not used for breeding. I will not allow him to go to a home with small children, as he is too unpredictable around them. He also needs to be an only dog, because he is very dominant. I have tried to do everything I can but since he is an adult dog and set in his ways, there is really nothing I can do

It breaks my heart, but I just can't have him attacking and hurting my daughter or my other dogs.

Maybe you should go back to the original thread and contact anyone that was originally interested in them. I think Dixie's_Mom was interested.

DorkyYorkies · 04-09-2008, 12:12 PM

She was interested, but for breeding I believe. I have decided that he is not suitable for breeding and will have to be neutered.

TLC · 04-09-2008, 12:43 PM

Ah...I feel very sad that Turtle and Duckie are going to be separated. I know you said his original owners didn't tell you the truth, but I wonder if they would want him back, being that you only just got them

DorkyYorkies · 04-09-2008, 01:35 PM

Yea, I don't know what to do. They did not have enough time for him because they were expecting another child and he was going out of country and they were moving. I am not too happy about the whole situation...it makes me sad because I have gotten really attached to Turtle

He even attacks Duckie sometimes and draws blood. I really think he needs to be an only dog. He just has way too much aggression in him. I don't know if it's because he never got attention or because he came from a puppy mill or what could have made him like this. It just scares me how unpredictable he is. I have a 1 year old, so I am doing this more for her protection. I have thought this over extremely hard and at this point, I have to look out for my child's safety.

I understand, your families safety is the most important thing, I never questioned that at all. However, I know they went to great lengths to keep Turtle and Duckie together and waited a while to find the right family. As their original owners, IMO I think it is best to call them and let them know what is going on.

poosdarling · 04-09-2008, 03:28 PM

Ouch! Best of luck.

autumn star · 04-10-2008, 05:35 AM

Sorry you are having to deal w/this!
I agree that I would contact the original owners and see what they say!
Good luck to you!

smile1276 · 04-10-2008, 06:46 AM

I'm sorry to hear this about Turtle...

I agree with TLC & Autumn ---I had an agressive male a few years back that attacked my son and I returned him to the original "parents". They really appreciated my doing that.

DorkyYorkies · 04-10-2008, 07:04 AM

Yea, I think I will. I can't return Duckie though, she is a sweetheart!!

I wonder if there is a lemon law for dogs in GA? He also has really BAD teeth. Terrible tartar and bleeding gums along with the fact that he has already lost two teeth since I got him and I also suspect a collapsed trachea. I know those issues can be from the fact that he came from a puppy mill and a result of bad breeding, but some of it has to do with how he was taken care of as well in my opinion. His teeth should have never been allowed to get as bad as they were

I feel like I really got ripped off for what I paid for them.

I am sure she is, but is that really fair? I thought they were sold as a pair?

I can not say if that's a result of being from a mill or not, but at this point, I would think that you would want the VERY BEST for him and her.

DorkyYorkies · 04-10-2008, 07:42 AM

He even attacks HER though. I have to keep them seperated half of the time because he will start barking at something and absolutely go nuts and attack her. He latches on with his teeth and will NOT let go. It's like he is out for blood when he does this. I do not know why he is like this and if there was something I could do, I would do it in a heartbeat. I don't think it is a good idea to have him around her if he is going to attack her for NO given reason. Yorkies have been known to injure each other and even kill each other. I don't want that happening. My whole point is that I think he needs to be an ONLY dog. I think that this agression problem may be the REASON they got rid of him...He just doesn't get along with anybody
