I wonder if I could pick your brains on behalf of a friend of mine
She has had a rescue dog for 6 weeks now. He has settled in really well, lovely animal
She was advised by the RSPCA that it would probably take him 6 weeks or so to settle in and be confident enough to show his true personality
He was fine for 5 weeks or so and now he has taken to attacking the 2/3 year old cat that they have had since it was a kitten
The last time was quite vicious, one of the children managed to grab his coller but the dog managed to pull a patch of hair out of the cats head...which suggests that the dog intended to get his head
She will probably try a behaviourist but I wondered if anyone had any advice
Not sure what other info to give...the dog doesn't appear aggressive to people or other dogs (although it got quite cheesed off with another dog who was being very playful the other day)
Should point out that the cat is blind and deaf
