I hate to say it, but I am truely disgusted by this thread. If advice will not be taken, I have nothing left to say. I have asked repeatedly what happened to make the dog bite, and the circumstances...you will not tell me. Most of us cannot help you, or see just why you are doing what you are doing if we don't know what happened. Something about a door and an "attack", that's all I got out of it. Exactly what happened that you don't want to tell us?

RIP Mr. Biggles...I hope your trip to the bridge is pain-free. I am deeply saddened by this.
Wrong kind of tackle... I'll try to explain it the best I can.
Bear LOVES to play tackle (we just call it tackle cause it looks like it).. She'll wack you with her front legs while shes all excited & wanting you to tap her side or butt (she'll dance if you get her, if you miss she wiggles & awooooooos at you) & well getting hit with a hard leg hurts & tickles the shins... so we fall over.. then shes goes into crazy wiggle mode & starts dancing & licking you all over.. she will NOT step on you (that would hurt a lot).. if you don't get back up, she'll show you how heavy her head can be on your face (shes a big kissy dog)

I already said what happend, theres nothing else to say my goodness.
If I missed something you posted I'm sorry, if you haven't noticed there are a lot of posts being posted & I'm trying to work & remember where i left on in this thread.. then type on top of that
