    someone would take him if we didn't already have our own animals to deal with.
    Many people with animals here have rehomed another animal. That statement doen't wash with me.

    This is not the 'first hurdle' either....Biggles was nippy, that was being worked with and improved...but Biggles has bitten TWICE.

    Again, between Jess and her vet is the best thing, I think.

    I didn't mean any harm by that statement, honestly. I meant other people have their own animals and cannot afford another animal like I can't.. THAT is what I meant. I wish Mr. Biggles the best of luck.

    This thread was always going to cause a stir and I dont think im alone in thinking this but most of kings threads do.

    I think biggles has a chance but not with king. I'm sorry but I dont think you are experienced enough for a dog like this and I think the shelter done a crap job when it come to rehoming these 2 dogs.

    If the vet suggests a behaviourists are you willing to work with them?

    Thats because I only start threads I don't know what to do or feel like **** about.. Why post about something I already know? I'm not into chatting up a storm on the forums, I use it more as a resouce when I need it. I'm not into playing or starting games, so ya.. all my posts are gonna be about things I need help on or feel like **** about... I was already reemed about asking for help the other day, so at least that can't start up in this thread...

    We didn't want an agressive dog! We made that quite clear!!! Actually we made that very clear & turned down some dogs they showed us, as they were a little agressive & we wanted NO agression. Chewing, messing, not knowing sit, come or stay, was 100% fine with us... but it was 100% NO to agression!! We're VERY angry at the shelter & at the old owners for this... We thought we were getting dogs with issues we could handle & work on. All other issues we handled.. I came here to get advice, so I could try more then 1 thing with the dogs. As some things work for 1 dog & don't for another (why its sooo important to have a plan A. B. C. & D.)...


    This isn't easy on us.. Chad has called me several times in tears. As Mr. Biggles is barking & its upsetting Chad pretty bad. He keeps leaving the house all stressed out... Bear has already gone on 6 walks with Chad, & its only 2pm.. Shes getting pooped out, but he has no wheres else to go, as hes living in fear of mr. Biggles getting loose & Attacking him again.

    How on earth is keeping Mr. Biggles fair to Chad? He was just attacked for nothing & is pretty much still trapped with the dog.

    I'm sorry but sometimes people have to come first. If I could rehome Mr. Biggles into a special group that deals with agressive dogs, then ya I'd do it as he is a sweety (when hes not trying to rip your arm off)... but I can't... There are no other choices...

    Ok you didn't want an aggressive dog,What was your first clue when you were notified that the dogs have been brought back numerous times?

    We were told they were returned because it was too hard to medicate bear.

    Which is total BS!! She has never missed a pill or wasted one... She takes them like a champ, with a little help from a 1cm long french fry twice a day.
