Is anyone up on Rage syndromCae? As the info would be good  :blink:

Hi Cazzie

Linda Ward is extremely knowledgeable on the subject - you can contact her via the following website.

http://www.cockerspanielrage.org.uk/

I would also imagine that if you did a search on Linda Ward or Rage Syndrome in the search facility you'd find a fair bit  :D :D :D
HTH

Ive read that thanks  ;) Im wanting to know how early in a dogs life its diagnosed, as I feel Maisy was so young. As I have never heard of a dog with it before and being so upset at Maisy's story i would love to learn more as I think so many of us could learn from this  :blink:

Many vets and behaviourists band the word rage around when a cocker comes in with a behavioural issue I'm afraid. I hear it often with cockers who suffer from bad cases of guarding/possessiveness --- which is a bad behavioural problem but not rage

Cockers are just hooligans in cute clothing!

I wonder if she could actually had a bad behavioural problem rather than rage --- many vets and behaviourists band the word rage around when a cocker comes in with a behavioural issue I'm afraid

I agree Penny, I think 'rage' is seen as an easy diagnosis for dogs which have behaviour issues, particularly cockers  :-\

I agree Jan. It's probably best if this thread is closed as most members have now had a chance to pass on their condolences to Beanie.
