RE: [eskiepeople:15363] Question about possible rising aggression

Thank you for your prayers.  It helps to know there are people like me who feel as I do about dogs.  My doctor who is treating the abcess I got from the bite said "Shoot the dog."  The dog is a problem but only with ONE of my dogs.  In a one-dog home or with a female dog, he is an absolute love. He likes children too.  Not sure about cats though.  I cannot figure out exactly what triggered his feelings about Lightning and I've about quit trying to puzzle it out.  I'm just trying to get him a good home before something else happens to me.  Spent 5 hours in ER  yesterday because of the bite and it's still not cleared up.  Got to get Rx filled and hope that finishes off the infection.  I suspect it won't though.  He isn't a bad dog, just needs a different situation.  But I can't keep going to the ER.  Animal control will be a problem if that happens.  And I can't make myself let them fight it out.  I do have insurance for me but not for the dogs if the fight was bad.  I just don't see that as a solution at all.

Hi Cheryl,
 
I have the same problem with my veins and it is not fun!!  When  I had cataract surgery in April it took 5 pokes in my left hand and then the inside of my wrist to get a good vein.  The second eye surgery only took 4 pokes!!  The anesthetist was the one who was finally able to get it. 
 
I hope the Clomicalm works.  I need something for my little Kennewick PM boy, Benny.  He gets overly excited when we go in  the car and barks - a lot!!!!  Very distracting and potentially dangerous!!
 
Prayers are with you and your boy.  I know there is a solution out there for him and hope there are people who can step up and take him.  Please don't feel that you have failed.  Sometimes things don't work the way we'd like but you have tried!
 
Take care of yourself,
Dorothy

I have small veins that collapse and roll and frequently lose the IV so I'll probably stay in the hospital a couple of days.  I'm going to call my vet tomorrow and see if the Clomicalm will work.  If it doesn't, this boy has to find another home.  I've never had a problem with socializing dogs before and feel like a failure on this.  He's such an adorable boy but I feel he needs to be an only the lonely dog - or at least with a female.  I'm putting the word out with some local doggie friends and hope I can find a solution.  Thanks for your prayers.

I'm so sorry about your infection, Cheryl.  The IV's work best on these infections so that's a good move.  Will you be giving them to yourself when you get home or go to the hospital?  We did the IV's at home 3 x times a day when our daughter had a really bad  infection several years ago.  She had one of those ports put in and the company, Apria, came out 3 times to help train us on how to do them.  If we can do them anyone can!!  I'll say prayers for your recovery and for a solution to your dog problem.  Take care of yourself.

Thanks for the article.  I'll have to read it.  The four dogs aren't the problem.  They are a well rounded pack.  The fifth dog is the problem.  He just hates one of my four.  As I type this I'm washing clothes to go to the ER.  The wound from the second bite I got from him has become infected and is absessing.  (sp?)  It is so bad that it smells.  My doctor told me that antibiotic pills wouldn't help it.  It was too bad and needs IV antibiotics.  I've got to find a home for this dog with no other animals STAT.  I don't have money for a trainer.  I had him fixed and that didn't seem to do any good altlhough its only been about a month.

Good luck with four dogs, I saw an article today on the Karen Pryor site that might be interesting about training dogs in a multi-dog household.  I didn’t see it mentioned, and so I am wondering about whether working with a trainer might help in this situation?

 

Best of luck!
