I have. He was actually very calm and loving MOST of the time. But as we found out, the problem was not from lack of training, an inherited gene, or neglect/abuse of the animal on our part--it was actually caused by a severe neurological problem. Have you ever had the dog examined to rule out this scenario? Just a suggestion.
Also, not to stir the pot, but Stacy did bring up a very valid point. And not to say that you DIDN'T do this, but...Yes, inherited behavior can play a big role, but so can proper training from an early age on. And sorry, but you don't need a licensed anyone to tell you that...it's common sense.
I hope you get help with your little one. I know how frustrating and heartbreaking a situation like this is. Please do keep us posted.
