PLEASE SHARE – When a dog kills a person or another dog, it makes the news. In the Spring of 2017 a dog in Maine killed a dog, was put into a shelter, and amidst much controversy was then put up for adoption. In Virginia, a rescue dog killed a 91-year-old woman the first day in its new home. That dog had a known bite history but was still put up for adoption by a rescue organization. These are tragic events for all, and they did not need to happen.
This blog post is a combination of two columns I wrote for Downeast Dogs News on the topic of dangerous dogs. I discuss how Maine law defines a dangerous dog and how those with expertise and training in canine behavior would determine if a dog is dangerous. In the second article, I discuss what I believe to be the responsibilities of those placing dangerous dogs into the community or those considering adopting such a dog. Lastly, I have updated the articles as they appeared in Downeast Dog News to include information on the dog attack in Virginia.

PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD–If your dog trainer, or anyone, ever suggests you do something to your dog that you would NEVER do to a human toddler, FIND A NEW DOG TRAINER!

The use of pain, force, and fear, tools like shock, prong, and shock collars, as well as sq**rt bottles and shake cans, are inhumane, cruel, and unnecessary.

If you are unable to find a humane dog trainer, check out the trainer search at the Pet Professional Guild - https://www.petprofessionalguild.com/find-a-ppg-professional/

What you do next may define the relationship between you and your dog for the rest of their life. Learn how you can safely intervene in this situation. Take some time now to prepare for this event if it should happen by reading this blog post.

PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD– Thank you to our friends at Mighty Dog Graphics for reminding us that our pets are sentient beings who can perceive or feel things.
In other words, inflicting physical or emotional trauma by using methods or tools that are intended to cause pain or fear is unnecessary and most certainly INHUMANE & CRUEL!
