Mr Biggles should never have been re-homed in the first place. It seems that there is a never ending number of pet owners that let their dogs get away with unacceptable behavior for years. Then one day they've had enough and dump the dog in a shelter.

They're just ignorant enough to think that there are hundreds of wonderful doggie retirement homes lined up just waiting to take their older problem pets off their hands. They convince themselves that the dog will be "better off" and will live "happily ever after". It seldom works out that way!

I completely agree. Not only does the dog suffer, but the new owners aswell.

None of us have ever had to make this kind of choice & never thought we would have too. Its one thing to put a dog down when its really ill & suffering in pain... But Mr. Biggles is a healthy dog.

I've told Chad & Andrew to stay away from Mr. Biggles. I will deal with him 100%. I'll put him outside to pee & will handle him. Yes I have a fear of being bitten, but I'm now expecting it, so I can handle the situation MUCH better, without harming Mr. Biggles to gain control (Scruffing him is what I did tonight to safely gain control of him).

THIS JUST SUCKS!!!!!!!!
