Oh Ginbart...I understand that you love your dog, but that is an accident waiting to happen! We had to get rid of a sheppard we had because it tried to attack a neighbors kid who was playing tag with my kids, and the dog didn't understand the chasing...she was just being protective but in the end that wasn't a good thing. It was a good thing I was there to call the dog off because it could have been really bad. We gave her to a couple who wanted a dog to guard thier construction bussiness. I'm not being critical, I'm just warning you that sometimes a really over protective dog might not be a great thing...although in many ways it CAN be a good thing. You sound like you have yor eyes open to it though

I'm sorry that your neighbour's not doing well, Morel...but he's now delegating the dog and it's behaviour to YOU! That's just not right!!!
If he doesn't want her to go in HIS yard, that's just ridiculous...it's because he doesn't want to pick up after her.

I agree, he put you in a tough position-now you are responsible for his dog-whatever happens to it. I would not want to be in that position. But what I would do is call the humane society, explain them the situation, and have them come and pick the dog up.

I'm not liking this position much myself...mostly because when his young kids come for the weekend they are probably going to be told that *I* disposed of thier pet. I don't really want to be the big meany in the neighborhood...that is not my nature at all. I love those kids and wouldn't hurt them like that

We no longer let her go outside without being on the leash unless we are out with her. And we live on a 76 acre farm. Thank God my son in law was in the Air Force and worked in the K 9 unit. He helped me understand this kind of dog. ( A dog biting because it's afraid )
From the first day my chicks were born I had her smell them. I would tell her oh look at the babies. She would lick them and she is fine with them. We do keep a very close eye on her.

Maybe you could ask him to put a muzzle on the dog if it's going to be outside.

Sounds like you have yourself a great guard dog, and you have it under control:>) Nothing wrong with a guard dog that is controlled
