So long story short I was engaged and we got a dog awhile back and I absolutely love the guy. The problem is he is fear aggressive. So he has nipped humans, he fights other dogs on sight, and he is terrifying around children/babies. We took him to training and it worked a little but not great. He has nipped several people and even drawn blood a few times.
I just recently broke up with SO that I got the dog with for reasons I won’t go into. So now we live in separate small apartments. We’ve been broken up for months and he’s been splitting time between the two of us which is just worse for his mental health.
I fear we don’t have the ability to properly care for him anymore. Being single is hard with him because no one can ever come back to your place or come visit because he may bite them. We can’t take him to doggy daycare if we plan to be gone as he can’t handle it. Also it’s lonely not having him for weeks at a time and I want to get another dog but I am afraid he will attack them and I won’t be able to have him here anymore.
I just don’t know what to do anymore. Does anyone have any advice on what can be done? Should I try to take him to a no-kill shelter? Should we try to continue training him? Or should we just go ahead and get new dogs and let him adjust?
