Still got the dog!!!

[Michah89]

As you all know been struggling with this dog keeps biting me attacking me wen feels like it. He's out of control and someone offered my partner 150 and he won't take it to get the dog off our hands. Clearly the dog means more than to him than me and this unborn kid? Fair enough I should leave but I do love him I'm just so stressed struggling what to do 😕😭

If the dog is vicious then putting him down would be the kindest thing. Giving him to someone to suffer fuck knows what fate is infinitely crueler

He don't bite my partner just me and he's obsessed with my partner follows him everywhere if he leaves he cries for hours and hours till he's home and I've told my partner that dog will go no where near my child. Plus when he's sees children he tries chasing them.

Your partner is a terrible dog owner, a terrible partner and about to become a terrible father. Decent dog owners don't let their dogs run at children, decent partners don't let their dogs bite their girlfriends and decent fathers prioritise their children's safety. The dog should be put to sleep. It's clearly very unhappy and out of control.

What breed is it? I don’t think it matters how much you think you love this prick, that baby’s safety comes first. He’s made his decision and he’s chosen and prioritised the dog

A real dog bite is absolute agony and involves at least a doctor but usually the hospital.

Do you mean nipping? Mouthing?

You both sound ill equipped for dog ownership and I fear you have already damaged the dog irreversibly. You seem clueless. Train the dog. Be responsible owners before you add a child to the mix.

Dogs aren’t disposable and if you’ve created a monster it is your job to fix it. If you can’t it should be the last dog you ever own.

I have had had stitches cos of him and he's a Belgian malinous he's bit my nipple he bullies my cat he shud be put down

The only person the dog don't bite is my partner even one else he's out of control

Fuck me I've read some shite on here but this is the most cruelest dog thread I have ever come across.
Has the dog been taken to the vet? Checked for pain? Behaviourist? Trainer?
He is an absolute shit owner,
The dog is demented and so is your partner letting the kids be in danger be around such a strong large dog
And you are a dickhead for allowing it aswell.
You've both brought this on yourself

Can't see how that's my fault!!!! And we have tried training him but nothing works with him. I'm pregnant hence why I'm getting rid to much to handle them dogs are way to dangerous to start with. We were told he was half German shepherd and half Belgium malnois but clearly they as no German shepherd as I've had them all my life and they not aggressive they lovely dogs. So till you get full facts don't come on here being abusive!!! Key board warrior u r byeee

Looking at the age of this dog, you haven't even begun to see what his untrained behaviour will be like yet. Fabulous dogs in the right hands, dangerous in the wrong hands (which your partner clearly is).

In your position, if he wouldn't get rid of the dog, I'd be gone, but I don't suppose that will happen.

It's you or the dog. The fact he hadn't rehomed him after the first time it attacked you shows he cares more for the dog than you. It absolutely will hurt your child.

I'm not an expert, but this sounds like resource guarding, with your partner being the resource. With a baby on the horizon it's a really serious and dangerous issue. There is a high chance the dog will dislike the baby receiving attention from tour partner, with consequences that don't bear thinking about,

If the dog is staying you need to move out. That dog shouldn't be around a baby.

Your partner needs a behaviourist, and experienced one. However I doubt many would recommend keep the dog on a house with an upcoming baby,

Exactly that's what I've said and he said he's not going to re-home to any1 and I've just come back from midwife app and he said he can be a good dog but he has to sell because of me I said it's not cos of me it's cos I'm protecting my child from dangerous dog. I said many ppl after one bite attack would of got rid of sent.hom to shelter. He's bite my nipple before honestly. But apparently someone coming today to have a look at him but I've said well hope you have told them he can't be with any other animals in house or small children as I can't have that on my head if he bite innocent child. Wen me and my partner argue the dog goes for me

I will leave if the dog doesn't leave , his own dad has told him he's dangerous

Excellent dogs but only in the right hands. They need someone who knows exactly how to handle them, and preferably a ‘job’ as they are working dogs, NOT family pets. Biting is a typical trait for that breed, which is why they should never be pets for clueless people like your partner.

If he won’t rehome the dog to a working/professional home, you must leave him. The dog is likely understimulated and bored, so is seeking unsuitable targets (you, and probably soon your child) to bite as that’s the only way he can communicate that he is unhappy.

Your partner is all round shit I’m afraid. Shit dog owner, shit partner and will be a shit parent.

Selling dogs is vile, God knows what a random new owner might do to it. Give the dog to a rescue. At least then it might have the chance of being properly looked after and trained. You two should be ashamed of yourselves. And don't ever get another dog.

The first and only thing a rescue will do to that dog is put it down. It’s a mix of dangerous guarding breeds with an extensive, serious bite history

Not necessarily, if it’s a breed-specific rescue. Biting is what these dogs do. If the dog is young enough, it may be suitable for assessment by police/military handlers as that is the sort of work these dogs are bred to do.

However, it does need to go to a breed-specific rescue (there are quite a few in the UK) to have a chance at being placed in a suitable environment. Most rescues that don’t specialise in this breed will take the biting at face value and opt for behavioural euthanasia, which may still be required if this dog is not workable, but a Malinois rescue will know what to do with the dog.

They are a working breed. Probably bored and going slightly mad. ... . I have heard talk of them being a banned breed also-as in not to be allowed as a family pet. . Google how they use them in the police. Living in a family home is cruel. Unelss you do intensive training and agility /other..

Unfortunately it's one thing after another with him and your relationship - you had already given him an ultimatum I believe - you or the dog and you are going to leave ?
That was from your previous thread re the dog.

Then there is the ' homelessness ' situation - are you still living in his family's home ?

and isn't there an alcohol issue too ?

I really don't know why you are not on your way back home to England.

Yeah I do believe this breed should be banned around families

For crying out loud. You should have already reported this dog and its utterly irresponsible owner to the police.

What are you going to do - wait until it's too late and it ends up killing a child?

I've told him all of this trust me

You mentioned that German shepherds aren’t aggressive. . I know directly of two that have bitten people (and were put down as a result).

@Michah89 as I said yesterday:
