I Need Serious Advice :-(

Both the dogs have snapped at/growled
at/or BITTEN my kids. Bristol just now bit
jacob. thankfully it didnt break the skin,
but jacob yanked his hand away and said
OUCH.
I have no idea what the hell to do.. Rob
acts as if its nothing. *oh they were just
playing*
NO.
Thats SO NOT PLAYING.
All jacob did was walk up to Bristols cage
and tried to pet him. wasnt fast or
aggressive about it at all.
The other day Sadie growled and snapped at
Rob just becuz he was trying to get her
our of the livingroom while we were
eating. He reached down to grab her collar
to guide her out and BAM she snapped.
I want the dogs gone.
Rob doesnt seem to see a problem.
i'd leave with the kids since obviously
the damn dogs are more important
but i have no money of my own to leave
with.

well you need to decide what's more
important...your kids safety or the
dogs...and let rob know.

I wouldn't give him a choice, why wait
until something bad happens. I agree, get
rid of them.

the thing that irritates me is hes
experienced it first-hand and still sees
nothing wrong with it. He says *yeah i
know their safety comes first* but he
still keeps bringing up *Oh if they wanted
to hurt me or him they would have.*
what do i do? Call the animal control?
WOuldnt both ROb and I have to sign off on
them or could just I do it? I am SOOO
ready to make these dogs leave.

I've had dogs all my life... and if they
wanted to hurt me they would have is
BS..... they sound like they might be
slightly aggressive..... but the dogs I
have had all were really good around
kids... never snapped or anything...its
all the dog's personality.... if they are
already doing this they will continue,
unless you have them trained.... did you
have the dog(s) before you all had
children?

nope.
we got them from Robs parents.. they are
their dogs but im to the point that i just
dont give a rats ass anymore.
(we took them because we have a backyard
thats fenced in and they dont.. we thought
the dogs would be good with the kids but
apparently not.)
maybe i could just give them back.
but then i cant take the kids over to
their house. I wont.

the reason I asked is that dogs get
jealous of new additions to the family
just like kids do... while others are
quite protective.... I would advise
giving them back...It could be just the
breed.... but your kids are more important
than the dogs...

we posted our dog o a website where we got
to choose the new parents but if it was a
safety issue i would drop those pups at
the animal shelter and say i found them so
they dont charge you to leave them unless
they are microchipped then there goes your
alibi lol

some animals do not get used to children
ever. I love my fathers older male dog to
death but we all know he gets jealous of
kids very easily and never take a chance.
They need to leave your home if you feel
they are posing a threat to your kids and
I would not give a flying rats arse what
anyone had to say, your children safety
comes first.

I'd get rid of them. Dogs will snap and
growl as a warning and then one day one of
them may come all unglued on one of the
kids and really maul them.
We had Koda and all he had to do was look
at Jaylon wrong and he found his way out
of here in a hurry.
Bridget had to get rid of Rudy because he
was nasty to Finn, I couldn't imagine the
damage that could have happened if Rudy
was a bigger dog.
I love dogs, but they frighten me around
kids.

OMG!
ROb just talked to his dad about it, and
he said that the dog doesnt ever do
anything unprovoked. That Jacob had to
have done something to make him mad. He
pointed out how earlier today when he was
over helping Rob with the car, how he saw
Jacob playing rough with Britol, and was
like, * a dog can only take so much.*
THAT WAS HOURS AGO!
HOURS
This time all Jacob did was walk up to him
and try to pet him.
im so sick of all this.
why did we come up here again?
defending a damn animal over his grandson.

I would have thrown them out at the first
sign of aggression. It's not worth having
my kid's scarred for life. period!

I would be so mad! If the dog bites one
of the kids I think you can call the
authorities and have the dog taken to the
shelter

i would offer them back to his parents and
if they said no i would take them right to
a shelter.
rudy was gone within an hour after the
incident with finn. it totally sucked
having to give him up but there was no
choice.
