I HAVE 2 SMALL DOGS... FATHER & DAUGHTER. THE OLDER DOG LOUI AGE 2 HAS A REAL BAG AGGRESSIVE PROBLEM. HE HAS BIT PEOPLE ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS & HAS CAUSED ME QUITE A SCARE. I LIVE ALONE IN A 3 BEDROOM APARTMENT & LATELY HAVE HAD A FEW ROOMMATES. THE FIRST ROOMMATE I HAD HE BIT & THEN HE GOT USE TO HER & EVERYTHING TURNED OUT OK. HE CURRENTLY SNIPED MY CURRENT ROOMMATE & I DONT WANT TO TAKE ANY CHANCES SO I HAVE TO PUT HIM AWAY EVERY TIME SHE COMES AROUND BECAUSE SHE IS NOW SCARED OF HIM. I DO NOTICE THAT THE MORE I TRY TO KEEP SOMEONE AWAY THE ANGRIER IT MAKES HIM, BUT I DONT WANT TO TAKE THE CHANCE THAT HE BITES SOMEONE ELSE. HE IS WHAT I WOULD SAY "BI-POLAR"... I JUST DONT KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT FROM HIM, ONE MINUTE HE'S FINE & THE OTHER HE SNAPS. LOUI CAN BE A SWEET DOG WHEN HE WANTS TO & GIVING HIM AWAY IS NOT AN OPTION, I JUST WANT TO FIND A SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM THAT WORKS OUT FOR ME & MY ROOMMATES. I ALREADY SPENT $450 IN TRAINING & THE TRAINER WAS CLEAR THAT HE CANNOT CHANGE HIS TEMPER 100%. THE TRAINER HELPED TO THE POINT THAT HE IS AT LEAST OBEYING ME TO A CERTAIN EXTENT & HE IS NOT BITING ME ANYMORE. I TRIED THE MUZZLE & IT MAKES HIM ANGRIER & HE HAS A HARD TIME BREATHING THROUGH IT. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW OF A GOOD WAY TO INTRODUCE NEW PEOPLE TO HIM WITHOUT RISKING ANYONES SAFETY & TO GET HIM USE TO THE TRANSITION OF HAVING NEW PEOPLE AROUND. I DO KNOW THAT EVENTUALLY HE IS CAPABLE OF GETTING USE TO SOMEONE, BUT HE ALWAYS HAS TO GET A GOOD SNIP AT THEM FIRST. BEING THAT WE LIVE IN A COUNTRY THAT IS POPULAR ON LAW SUITES I DONT WANT TO TAKE ANY RISKS & END UP IN THE DOG HOUSE MYSELF. I HAVE A BIG PROBLEM ON MY HANDS & NEED ADVICE.

THANKS,
KATHY
