Good luck to the op, I am sure you will do what is best for all involved. |
That is exactly what I am afraid of. I do not want either of them getting hurt. It is a hard decision to make, but I have to do what is best for them. I have had a few people suggest that I put have him down if he is THAT aggressive, because he attacked me yesterday just because I was taking his picture :( He also attacks me whenever I try to stop him from fighting. It's very scary even though he is small. I am NOT gonna have him put down though. There is not as much aggression towards people, it's more towards other dogs . I would much rather have him go to a home where he can be the only dog and be the alpha male like he wants. I think he would be much happier. |
Yikes. This is a bad situation. I think you are right to re-home him where there are no children or other dogs. In the meantime, I'd try a muzzle. Pet food Express has tiny ones, and Petco probably does too. No sense taking any chances while you work this out. Good luck. I know this must be difficult. |

I also agree that PTS - is NOT the answer. He needs the proper care and the proper experienced people. Yorkie Rescue :thumbup: |
How do I go about getting him into a rescue? |

Very good advice. :thumbup: Elaine |
Good luck i hope he find's the perfect home. |
Thanks everyone. I hope I am doing what is best. This is so hard :( |
Where you able to get a hold of the original owner or find a resuce to take him? Elaine |
Sorry you are experiencing this behavior Did you know the breeder? Did they have children? Maybe he has been teased in his past. Did you receive a copy of his pedigree? Inbreeding can also be a culpert. Wish you the best of luck. Contact the person you purchased your Yorkie from. :goodluck: |
AWH this is so sad....I remember these two looking for a home. |

I think I read everything but did not see ...have you tried getting him neutered and seeing if that helps his aggression issues. I know I have NO experience with this so I may be grasping at straws here but is that worth a try? Gosh my heart is breaking for all of you...so sad! |
I still have him and I am now interviewing for prospective homes. I am going to be very picky and I am gonna require that they have him neutered. I am looking for an older couple or someone that can't have children so he can be treated like a baby. He also has to go to a home with no other dogs, since he is so aggressive towards other dogs. I feel so bad that he came from a puppy mill and ended up this way as a result. I HATE puppy mills and I just wish they would disappear :mad: He is my responsibility and I think this is what is best for him. I just can't see putting him in a rescue and never seeing him again :( I want him to go to a home where I will be able to visit him and check up on him. Just keep praying that the perfect person will come along. Thanks for all of your support. |
