Need help urgently! Can't Post

Konnichiwa minna-san,

I have a black local mixed dog. Actually, my mom adopted him from the street because he was sick. Then, he got better and stays at my place since. But two months ago, he started to have a very bad discipline. He bark non-stop when he sees a cat cross in front of the house, he barks at people that come to my house and he even bark non-stop when he want to poo poo.

Now, it got worse. He wants to bite my mom. Not those friendly bite. He would growl fiercely, his fur will stand and he is ready to pounce on my mom. We didn’t know what got into him. We try to release him at night for him to run freely at our car porch. But it doesn’t help. We can’t do anything but to ask somebody to take him away. We can’t get near him now.



Could anyone tell me where I can find a dog catcher? We don’t want to come to such decision but we had no choice. We can’t take the risk that one of this day, he will bite my mom. Or me.



I would be grateful if someone could give me a phone number of the dog catcher.

Hi there,
could he be sick or in great pain? Have you checked him thoroughly? I am sure he must have reasons to bark and become such a nuisance to attrack attentions. Or he was chained for long hours than frustrated him? Guessing...
I met a strayt dog, he was hit by a car. I tried to bring him to vet but he refused and fiercely barked at me. I just found out later that his leg was broken and wouldn't let me (a stranger) touch him as he was in pain Unsure
Don't jump into conclusion to give him away so fast lahhh Frown

Hi Jennifer, Smile

How long has it been since u adopted the dog? If he's been at your hse for some time already and only two months ago he turned aggressive, then something must have happened lor... I also think that dogs on the street are generally more suspicious and do not open up to strangers so easily because they have not had much socialisation with people all their life (until u picked him up of course). So it might just be his defense system working...he was a street dog mah so he has to learn how to be street wise to protect himself.

Hope you can provide more information ie how long he's been living with all of u, what health checks have you done for him, does he want to pounce on everyone or izzit just ur mum...etc. I'm sure there are many members here who can give a little advise.

But please don't give him away....especially to the dog catchers! Frown Try browsing through some threads about how dogs are handled after they are caught...it's very pitiful. And he might not even have a chance to live after that...or to be placed in a good home.
