Well I am sorry but I have just took Billy out on the park for a quick walk whilst it is quiet and guess what, he was attacked for the second time in his young life and yet again it was a staffy
.
I am absolutley furious. Billy has enough to deal with in his life at the moment without being attacked for no reason. I feel we have made fabulous progress with Billy and his behavioural programme , i am over the moon with him and it has not been easy for any of us. It has been heartbreaking to have to ignore him when he begs and pleads for attention but we have done it and we are making headway. I have lost count of the amount of times he has been by my feet crying and crying for attention and i have had to ignore him. What if this sets him back??? brings out the agression in him again???.
Billy has took himself off to bed now , something he never does and he is very very quiet.
I am absolutley furious, livid. The attack was very slight, nothing in comparrison to last time and Billy is absolutley fine , no cuts or anything. This dog followed us. It wanted confrontation, it was not happy with just saying hello to Billy it had to jump on him. I know where it lives and i noticed the owner had left their garden gate open. I am far far too angry to go round and confront the owners now, i will leave that until i calm down, but i am now even further away from liking this breed than i was an hour ago.
Billy is very well socialised and must meet at least 5 different dogs a day and never ever has a problem with any dog. Both attacks have something in common and that was that both attacking dogs followed us ie they wanted a fight.
Sorry - I know my post isn't gonna be liked but i have just about had enough, yes i understand there are bull breeds out there that are well behaved, it could just be that we are very unlucky but i for one am gonna take some convincing that the majority are not just looking for a fight.
