Daisy bit a person!!!

That is terrible! Will Daisy be going to this kennel that you mentioned or is that just an option? You said that you knew it would happen eventually. How did you know that? Forgive me if you've mentioned this before. I'm a relatively new member and haven't caught up on all the background information for everyone. I hope things go well for you though.

Well...I hope Shaun will learn that he could have MAYBE mostly likely have prevented all this by learning how to train Daisy properly.

I mean - this is his mom, not a stranger.

It's not Daisy's fault. Poor girl!

And it isn't your fault either. I hope Jamie's aunt can take Daisy, and also that she and her nephew can have a talk - maybe he will listen to her when he won't to anyone else.

I know you were concerned about your baby too.

{{{{hugs}}}} Daisy will be safe and happy, and your baby - and any other visitors to your home - will be safe.

Prayers to you.

Nevermind my previous post with the questions about her behavior. Catty1's post jogged my memory and I do recall reading previous posts about Daisy and your concerns about her. I'm very sorry.

I know I wish I could have known Daisy as a puppy, maybe I could have prevented all this.. I know for a fact Daisy was spoiled rotten as a puppy, always in a safe place *in her mind* and now that she is shown a whole different world she has never know *new people and places* she just cant handle the change.. Its really too bad, but maybe its for the best... I just hate having to go thro this.. I hope that Jamies Aunt wants to take her in.. Because if she doesnt, I am not sure what we are going to do.

Wow... how heart-breaking. =(

Have you considered a behaviorist? And working with her? Why would she need to be put down, for a bite that didn't even break the skin?

I dunno. But, I do know that Gonzo could definitely escalate to nipping people who come into our house, if he was not handled properly in such situations. He is very sensitive, and he's fine with any people, except for CERTAIN people coming into the house. The key is desensitizing him to people coming in and out, teaching him to wait when some one is at the door, and introducing him slowly... or crating him when it's appropriate. It is a SLIGHT inconvenience, but it isn't life-changing or anything. You can't set her up for failure like that.

Poor Daisy - I do hope the kennels will take her. How is Shaun's Mom today?

[tikeyas_mom]

The last thing I want to do is getting Daisy PTS.. I rather rehomeher.. I think Shauns mom is ok today.. I just dont get why Daisy would do it.. She has known Shauns mom for a longgg time.. longer then she's known me even!!
This wasn't justa nip.. it left a huge blister about 3 inches long and 2 inches wide.. And the way she came bolting up the stairs, charging towards the front door, wasn't at all friendly.. I hope Shaun just calls his friend right away and gets it over with.. because we have people coming in and out of this house all the time.. And I dont want this sort of thing to EVER happen again.
