| commented answer | Sudden aggressive behaviour ? To the vet but didn't take him in because I thought his owner might show up and I didn't want to be involved in any nuisance. |
| commented answer | Sudden aggressive behaviour ? One of the kids told me that the dog belonged to an elderly woman who was his owner just for the name sake., So after I would feed and pet him ,he would leave.But for last four or five months , he wouldn't go and live around my house but nobody came looking for him and thereafter I had few trips |
| commented answer | Sudden aggressive behaviour ? I didn't take him initially because I already had a dog Jaime and a cat JoJo and have two kids and I have to handle them all ( alone ) and I began to feed him Because he was malnourished and unhealthy ( by the looks of it ) . |
| commented answer | Sudden aggressive behaviour ? I have informed the animal control.Besides,nearly three months back,I had taken him to vet and he was totally fine back then so I thought he must be healthy now . Thank you |
| commented question | Sudden aggressive behaviour ? First of all,I want to thank you for your concerns and help..,local animal control has taken care of the dog now and I went to the ER next morning.Though I wanted to adopt it but I didn't as I had kids living with me. |
| commented answer | Sudden aggressive behaviour ? I am really thankful for your concerns.,and yes I went to the ER as soon as I could and I informed the local animal control ( though I was thinking of adopting him but after that incident I couldn't take him in as I already had two kids living in my house and I decided I didn't want any risk ) |

| asked a question | Sudden aggressive behaviour ? I feed and pet a stray dog regularly . Just a few days back I went to feed him his favourite food ( chicken ) but it didn't show any interest in it and gradually walked towards me as I strived to pet him as I calmly retreated back but it bit me on my thighs ( slightly above the knees ) and as I tried to unlock his jaws he grabbed my right hand ( lower forearm ) and pushed me on the ground and vehemently continued to try to detach my arms from my body but somehow I managed to get a stone in my left hand off the ground and hit him with it , he ran but from a distance he looked back and began to come back but I threw the stone at him and he finally left me alone . Next day ,he was nowhere to be seen until the evening ,he followed me with a wagging tail ( as though nothing had happened and as he had been doing this for more than a year ) the moment I stepped out of my car but I shooed him away . I desperately want to get him back but a part of me still reminds me of the night and compels me to think what if there was a kid or an elderly and I badly regret my decision of hitting him and this is killing me on the inside that I hit him . So , should I get him back ? Was I right to hit him ? Why did he behave like that abruptly ( he is perfectly healthy )? |
