Hey everyone. I have 2 dogs, one is an 11 year old Dane Mastif mix (who i have had since a pup) snd one is a 4 year old Dane Boxer mix?? (Resuced her at 6 months)
Besides the younger pup being scared when we first got her, we have had little issues, and she has grown into a wonder dog. She had amazing recall, is eager to please, gets along well with the older dog and is very loving.
I have a toddler (almost 3) and the 2 of them are almost inseparable. (Its really cute) however there was an incident today.
While I was doing the dishes, my daughter was beside me on the floor, and the younger pup was on my other side. She unprovoked went after my daughter. I had to pull her off her. (Thankfully no serious harm, but she was bleeding) my daughter was petrified.
Im looking on advice. Anyone know what might have caused this shift in behaviour? (The dog was looked at by the vet) Would a muzzle until we can figure it out be a good idea? I want to look at all options before I jump to re-homing the dog.
Thanks
