I don't believe you are doing the right thing putting him down so early.


When I worked as a trainer there were a lot of dogs there who needed stern discipline the right way. Yes we get bit, but that is our job and that is what we are trained to do. You can't just take one persons word as gospel, your trainer is only one out of money who would be willing to help.


Maybe your home is just not the right home for him....that shouldn't have to condemn him to death should it? I do believe you care for Chewy a great deal but please give him a chance with another trainer or rescue. We see TONS of dogs, and a lot nip.bite/bark/dig etc, but most can be trained to stop that disruptive behavior. If after seeing other trainers etc. he does not get better, then make the decision. Every dog deserves a second chance, or more.

Do you know dogs could smell feel? They will sometimes bite because of that.

There are also drugs that could help him get better. Just because your family is not the one who can meet his special needs doesn't mean there is one out there who can't.


Please give him another chance.
