Find a friend that has a larger dog that wont hurt a fly. Muzzle ur dog, & try to introduce. thats what we did to a friends 200 pound Rotti. we muzzled him, chained him tight to a tree & brought my dog Max out to say hi, Well the rotti tried his best to kill Max, but we kept Max out of reach & we all just sat there & petted Max at first, then I went up to the rotti & started petting him while to rotti's owner kept petting Max, we kept switching between dog & the rotti, stoped trying to kill Max & an hour later, the rotti was willing to meet max up close & sniff him (muzzle still on). then we took both dogs for a walk (rotti still muzzled) then we went to my place & put both dogs on Max's couch & let the rotti of the leash (still muzzled)... the rotti started to cuddle up to Max & lick him the best he could through the muzzle. Then we took off the muzzle (while my dad was home, just incase) & everything went swellThe rotti didn't have as big of a hatred towards other dogs a month later after him & Max were introduced. It was a great thing how that rotti changed. He went from killer to a woof or two & thats it.
& the reason we called him a killer was cause, he got loose in his yard (but he wont leave the yard line, thank god) & this lady let her Mastif loose!!!!!!!!! Well of course the Mastif charges the rotti & a huge fight breaks out that no one can stop with their hands (dogs too darn big & string) Weel the rotti's master screamed in horror for the rotti to come to her, for the first time ever the rotti did what he was told, he stopped the fight & can trotting to her, but the Mastif was hot on his trail & well she thought her & her dogs lives were in danger & she screamed as the Mastif charged towards her & lets just say, u never want to see a rotti protecting its master, its a bloody mess. The Mastif was torn to shreads & the owner of the Mastif called the cops on the rotti!!! Well the cops wanted to do away with the rotti right there.. but a neighbour came running out & said that the rotti broke off the fight & then only attacked again to protect the Master & the cops called him a killer & said if that killer ever gets loose were shooting it...
At that time the cops were bad & I mean bad... it took over 20 yrs for the province to notice how bad the cops in that town were.. 90% of them were fired, 9% were transfered & only the chief remains & their trying really hard to get rid of him too... It was a good thing that OPP has started to run the town, or bad things like shooting dogs would still be happening... All a dog had to do was bark at a cop & they would shoot it...
opps, this is kinda long... sorry guys
I'm just really proud of the rotti's improvement, he hasn't tried to harm a stupid barking dog in quite a few yrs now. But I think he died a year back or more, cause they went poor & couldn't afford to take him to a vet & he fell horribly ill & droped to about 80 pounds... poor Rocky
