I Have An American Bulldog Who Is Almost 2 Years Old. Despite Training, He Is…

I have an American Bulldog who is almost 2 years old. Despite training, he is very aggressive towards other dogs. He was attacked by a pit bull, on our property, before he was a year old and every since will not tolerate any other dogs or any kind of animals for that matter. We have paid quite a bit for training to try and help him socialize but after a while he is back to his old self. No one will board him and we can’t take him anywhere that has a lot of people or other animals. He’s great at home and wonderful with our children, so I am at a loss s to what to do. He also has pretty bad hip problems and is in pain a lot if he gets a lot of exercise. I love him so much, as does my family, but I want to do the right, humane thing. Help.

    Hello, as an extreme animal lover, I say no, try to train and comfort as much as you can, but I don’t know you and I can’t tell you what to do. That’s the last case scenario. Good luck!

    Hi Krista, I totally agree.

    We have done two extensive training courses for his aggression . One two week program and one five week, away from home program.

    Without having access to the labels, I really can’t answer that question – we don’t have Dr. Clauder’s in the US.  I know most vets feel that wet food is better for cats, though.

    I just feed her with dry food during night
    During day she eats boiled chicken is this good ?
    According to ur experience which brand is better ??

    I can’t answer that question as we don’t have one of them. This is why you need to read the labels.

    Boiled chicken is not nutritionally complete and I wouldn’t feed it for a meal.

  4. Zahra Bashiri

    What do you recommend for a complete meal ?
    Which brand is good in US?
    All the labels abt nutrition it’s almost the same
    Here we have these brands: sanabelle , bosch , royal canin, Dr.clauders, N&D

    the only one from that list that i know is Royal Canin. we don’t have any of the others. for what we have available in the US, i rather like Nature’s Logic, Acana, Orijen, Wellness, and a few others…we feed Nature’s Logic at the moment.

    a good kibble is a complete meal by itself.

    and I doubt they’re all the same. read them carefully. i guarantee some will be better than others. search for reviews of the “better” brands, and go from there.

    I’m guessing you’re inexperienced with regards to breeding and lack a breed mentor to help you…that means you need to call the vet who has monitored the dam throughout her pregnancy.

  2. Lisa Pfab

    Please go see a vet. I know money is sometimes an issue, but try to apply for care credit, or something to get your dog looked at. Is she eating? Is she Drinking? Are her gums nice and pink or white looking? can she walk?

    Please call a vet!

    How can I tell my dog is getting better, or any signs or recovering.

  2. Kelly

    Hello,

    sorry to hear you dog is so sick. What did your vet say was wrong with her? I would call the vet back and explain that she is not getting better and ask them. You’ve already paid for your bill there, so give a call back and explain that she is still sick. If they cannot help, find a new vet. If you cannot afford it, reach out to local rescue organizations and ask if they have any programs that can help with assistance. Ask you vet if they have Care Credit (apply for it , ask you vet how). Ask your vet if they can  take payments or if you can work off or volunteer with them to help pay for the care. .Good luck!

    To the vet with you, first thing this morning.  There may be a scratch on her eye.  Don’t delay on this – eye problems can go downhill QUICKLY.
