I love him, but he's fricking dangerous. It was truly terrifying pulling him off this little fur ball tonight...wondering if he was going to kill it.

BBQ him for the lsu game on Saturday. After everyone snacks on the roasted pooch all day, then tell them what you did.

Yes, he will rip away, hence the pinch collar. He does heel now and walk at my side but if he sees a bird cat dog rabbit he freaks.

Do you have a picture of him? What mix is he? This might help us understand his aggression.

Now that you've posted this, you just wrote a blank check to anyone he might attack.

Dogs are animals first. Not all of them are little warm puppies. I admire that you are trying to find an alternative, but you know the dog best. If it's capable of indiscriminate killing, it needs to be destroyed. That's the responsible thing to do. I don't envy you for losing a 5 year companion, but killing is more than just an inconvenience.

He acts that way because you're a psycho. LINK

Probably a pit or chow mix.

I think the big thing in your post is that you're having a baby? Wow, congrats.

Tonight while walking him, his pinch collar came apart (he's a runner). Another neighbors shih tzu got out and he attacked it drawing blood.
I love all dogs, but that isn't ok. I worry about our rescue sometimes. I'm currently nursing a black eye because she freaked the frick out the other day when she saw a dog and pulled me over while I had my little dog in my other arm.

Send him to a farm or something before you put him down

You need a choke chain, daily training routine with rewards, lots of patience, and strong Alpha control.

If three months of this doesn't change his behavior, you need to find a friend with lots of land who can just let him run loose.

Either try to break his aggression with shock collar and/or socializing while muzzled...or try to find someone who has land that could take him in. I'm against putting a dog down unless he's shown aggression towards humans.

Just find a way to keep him away from other dogs. Harness, fenced yard, etc.

Just sucks that he has traumatized two other dogs with his bullshite. I dont want to give him away...feel like he's my friend but the aituation we are in right now... he's not a family dog and my fiance is pretty scared that although hes never shown human aggression...whats to stop him from grabbing the baby one day. fricked up situation now that he's attacked a second dog.

Feels bad.

When my youngest sister was a toddler, she tried to break up a fight between our family dog and a neighbor's dog. She got bit.

You can not predict what will happen to children in the heat of battle.

Try the dog whisperer.

Giving him away > putting him down

And if you find him a good home with someone else, you could always ask new owners if you could come by and visit your old friend from time to time
