I feel for you with his anger issues. Woody was barely over a year old when taking a summer vacation at the lake. A friend drove up for the day with her little boy who had a set of plastic golf clubs (he was 3yrs old). They are neighbors so they knew Woody well and have played together many times. Well, that day, Izack must have had a mean streak in him as well after the car ride, and was trying to hit Woody with one of his clubs. I just about had a heart attack when I saw him!!
To this day, Woody is VERY uneasy around children especially when the kids are hyper. I am here to tell you that there is hope. He is very young and can relearn that children are fun to play with. Woody has been socializing with my 2yr old grand daughter for the last year and they have become good friends. Ava can come up to him now and pet him and kiss the top of his head without worring about being nipped at.
THERE IS HOPE!!!
