It's crazy to expect others to offer up their dogs for her dog to keep aggressing toward when he's clearly making no strides forward. Likely she's not a strong pack leader or very good at helping him with his problem or he wouldn't be so fearful, protective or dog-aggressive himself. I'll bet you can offer Wallee up as his guinea pig every other day and he never will get better. She needs to hire a dog behaviorist to train her how to help her dog herself. Until she brought a calm, well-behaved, muzzled dog down to visit Wallee and he stayed well-behaved for several visits, I'd not entertain visits with that dog. He's obviously just as uncomfortable around other dogs as they are around him the way he is now and he will probably be happier if she quits trying to force the issue until she gets some professional help for him. Right now he's dangerous and could bite or attack at any time. |
I agree, do not allow the aggressive dog anywhere near Wallee. It is not your responsibility to train the neighbor's dog using Wallee as a potential victim. It is the neighbor's responsibility to train their dog, and until the dog is trained, don't let it near Wallee!
