When we got Camden at 2 1/2yrs of age, she had issues from the way she was living & had been treated. We have gone to training classes, met with a behavior specialist, etc.. She has improved, though some things I think are permanent and this was also the opinion of the behaviorist we consulted with, but I wouldn't have ever dreamed of putting her to sleep!
If you have exhausted all training, behavior, medical options and everyone involved concurs there is no hope for this animal, I guess then tough decisions would have to be made.
But, unless I missed it, she tried working with Mindy herself, but never any professional help, correct? That to me is just unfair to this dog.
At the very least to not pay to ship the dog to rescue or someone who has offered to take her in, I don't get.
Very sad.

and she calls herself a breeder...you would think she has the funds for the litters...why not for Mindy??
