    This whole situation makes me sick. I'm curious what your intention was in posting this thread?

    1) It sounds as if you have way too much going on in your life to have pets right now.

    2) It seems as if Bear and Mr. Biggles' are too much dog for you to handle. They should have gone to an owner with more aggression experience.

    3) If Chad's health is so unstable with Flesh eating, why have pets in the first place?

    4) Again, if he is at risk for flesh eating, why has he not sought medical attention for the bite?

    I saw a program once where a dog would only attack a certain person. Come to find out the person approached the dog in a unique way that triggered the dog. A behavior therapist was able to pick up on that and correct the problem.

    I'm very saddened that you aren't/weren't willing to try any of the suggestions here. You made up your mind to put Mr. Biggles to sleep despite some very good advice.

    What bothers me the most is that while you've been quick to respond to other posts in the thread, you won't update on whether Mr. Biggles is at the bridge or not, yet you posted a thread about Bear this morning not even mentioning or seeming the least bit saddened that Mr. Biggles life was ended (if that has indeed happened).

    IMO, Mr. Biggles is better off at the bridge than to stay living with you. I'm sorry for sounding terribly harsh, but I just don't feel enough was to prevent this from happening.

    Please understand that I know some dogs cannot be saved and must be PTS, but I'm failing to see how a 12 pound dog can do so much damage and can't be helped.

    Godspeed to the bridge Mr. Biggles.

    I'm so sorry to hear this. I'm not going to judge your decision, and hope Chad recovers. My brother adores dogs and has owned at least 5 large breeds, but I swear everytime he walks past a small dog they bite him. thankfully no one ever had their dog put down because of it. Maybe Mr. Biggles just needs to be in a male-free home. The dogs that have bitten my brother all had issues with men.

    All I said was that I know Mr. B is not at the bridge as of right this second.

    I find it amusing that the people who keep saying they are done in this thread continue to post.

    I simply think it's wrong to judge, we are not in the position that Jess is in. But for the grace of God go I........................

    I never asked for any help in this thread, NOT once cause I already knew my options. I posted cause I was very upset over the whole thing.

    If I was able to make it to the Toronto HS to have him put down I would have done it yesterday. I was 30 mins late getting home due to traffic & then it was hopeless cause of rush hour traffic. I don't live in the same city I got the dogs from. I'm against the shelter thats in this city so I will not support it (they support the BSL & are quite nasty if you even mention a pitty).

    So I have no choice to wait until tomorrow.

    I haven't repled here cause of a sick PM I was getting. They honestly think that keeping Mr. Biggles locked up is good. Umm no, on so many levels.

    Aggressive dogs are NOT wanted in our home, Not sure If I can type that any more clearer. Aggressive dogs were NEVER wanted in our home. Thats why we spent so much time picking out dogs & asking questions (5hrs worth!). We made it VERY clear to the shelter we would not tollerate Aggression period! So stop saying I shouldn't have gotten an aggressive dog, we didn't know & the shelter didn't tell us he was.
