I just went back and re-read the thread all at one time (I shouldn't have replied to the dog-walker part before doing that).

It's very possible that the new post added on to the old thread was taken by others too as a stand-alone situation.


Anyway, please clarify:

There was a previous bite (before the dog-walker)? What was that about?

Then the dog-walker, and now (above) your wife?


Is this all correct?

yes correct previous i was bitten while walking in the night. it may be my mistake. then the dog walker and at the time of my wife i feel it is reaction caused by pain caused by my silly corrections. i am saying this because when in reaction to this nipping/bite when i took the dog to tie to show him NILIF the dog cried. certainly at the time of dog walker this issue was not there. it is to be mentioned here that my previous post issue were different from this. i just wrote in continuation to ease the navigation of my posts. thanks

one more problem reported when i was not home today. the dog showed aggression to mad. i dont know why this dog is exhibiting strange behaviour. maid is working with us for last eight months.

Regardless of whether you perceive the first bite as very different from the following ones, this dog has now bitten everyone in your house except your child. (I assume that "showed aggression" again means "bit." Even if not, if he only threatened the maid, my answer would be the same.)

We cannot know from here whether the dog worked up from being a pushy young dog whose owner only started pack structure work and then left off (as you mentioned), leaving the dog to take over the house, or whether he has what might be called faulty wiring in his brain, or what.

The point now is that your family is in danger. The dog CANNOT continue to have access to your family.

I would be taking off work and devoting my next days to getting a professional evaluation of the dog. I think you said you have muzzle-trained him? Then only you will be walking him, muzzled, while you arrange this. No matter what's going on, this isn't the dog's "fault." But that doesn't mean he can continue in this escalation. IMHO, it will only get worse, so you have to step up NOW.

I really wish you good fortune with this, and I certainly understand being attached to the dog. But your family (and you, and everyone around him) take precedence.



This is all JMO, of course.

I agree 100% with Connie's post above!

i am very much thankful to all the team working for the dog kind and human being. i am here for all the criticism for me in upbringing of the dog and for the safety of the society and for the life of dog. i tried my best to implement pack structure and introduce it to my family. yesterday i went to vet for checkup to determine if there is any problem to escalate this problem. before disclosing what the vet opinion is, i am happily announcing that i will work more hard and not going to separate the dog from me. i have learnt from all of the forums that dogs live in the present and with fight or flight tendency. i regard every expert in his/her profession and i regard my vet and his experience in his field, he told me that the dogs are very clever and able to read the body language. i told all the event to him and he told me to tie the dog and put on the muzzle and take a roll of the newspaper and hit the dog on the shoulder in order to psychological tell him that he made a mistake and actually not harming to dog. i did not appply this formula but i find that my dog enjoyed the walks and played with me and responded in the practice of recall . and i would be able to send you the videos for training sessions and for your kind advice.

When I said you should be taking off work and devoting your next days to getting a professional evaluation of the dog, I never meant a vet. I meant a very good, very experienced trainer.

And that advice still stands.

a vet that recommends hitting the dog with a rolled up newspaper . . .


ok , so they do things different over there in india .

i told all the event to my vet and he told me to:

TIE THE DOG and put on the muzzle and take a roll of the newspaper and HIT THE DOG on the shoulder in order to psychological tell him that he made a mistake...

i did not appply this formula.

Well, thank goodness that with your Leerburg training you Did NOT Apply that "psycho advice" from your vet, who is a MENACE, IMHO...

However, as of right now in Your CONFINED Household (urban apartment without any Private SECURE Dog-Yard) your whole Family and all your Employees are at HIGH RISK of being Seriously Injured by this unstable dog...

I know nothing about Dog-Bite Law in your country, but in the USA, both the Dog-Walker & Your Maid could sue you in court AND WIN if this dog Bites Them.

Two things I will never ask "most" vets.
Training advice.
Nutritional advice.

thanks to all of you. i am on the way to training the same dog and really not going to re invent the wheel. by the way thanks for your guidance and for me nothing is impossible if i work hard and with dedication.
