My friends had a dog who was as sweet as sweet could be, until he would get this crazy look in his eye and attack people for no reason.

Nothing worked...and believe me, they tried......and are so sad that this was the only outcome.

If you've never been through it.....where nothing works...not doggie prozac or mood elevators or training or psychology...you just run out of alternatives....I have five dogs....and I supported their decision. Every time the door bell rang, these people lived in fear that their dog would attack, because it was intermittent. They tried everything to fix the problem. Even the vet supported the decision to euthanise....

I'm surprised to see these reactions....I really am.
Raven consider the source of the comments! You're a sweetie and classy! Something lots of folks around here could use. We also tried for over a year with Casey and after seeking professional advice we made this difficult decision. Thank God I got my two other dogs to help me through!
