Dumb Q time: I realize lack of funds would make it impossible anyway, but does medication exist to calm aggressive dogs? (As I say, it's dumb Q time)
Kerry,
Not a dumb question at all.
We have used medications to treat some of our "problem" kids, and we do have success stories.
There's a variety of behavior modification meds available and we have tried them all.
Among them Clomicalm, amitriptyline and valium. Also, on occasions the ace promezine.
Along with the meds, you have to do training also.
So we have had some success.
But my Lucy(fer), did not respond to any meds or training. We even went to a vet specializing in neurotic dogs. She flunked! (Unlike Midnight who is aggressive, Lucy's problems are severe separation anxiety & neurosis!)
But since Middy's stroke, we are hesitant to medicate her with any of the above listed drugs.
Patti
