Need abet beside my pit bulls and their behavior, ever used Clomicalm?
I have two very hyper pit bulls. A three year old feminine and a 1 year old boy. Had puppies on on 8-18-08. They are both getting spayed and neutered on the 17th of December. He will not let me leash him at adjectives. He is like a fish out of water. He nips and rips cloths. My feminine is very dominate and she attacks him playfully all the time. She listens much better than he does. When I hold them together by their collars and communicate them to sit they attack each other or he jumps up and nips. Or he is external and a chain (because we have no fenced yard and the neighbors are so afraid it scare my dog) i'll try and get him to sit by holding his collar and lightly pushing on his backside or not at adjectives and he sits but comes right back up. He then sits again and just out of no where on earth jumps up and nips me. Usually just departure a bruise or a slight skin break. Mind you this has happened twice in days gone by few weeks, been in front of new empire and the puppies have been gone for a month and a half immediately. I don't really want to have to get rid of him. He's such a good dog. He lately goes into trances where his eyes get really red and he nip and tried to dominate me and do what he wants. I've flipped him on his side and just held him down to calm him and start over, but it doesn't appear to matter too much. Please help... I love my dogs.
I would rehome him it will get worse my son's pitt is like that
he actually attacked their kitten the first time he nearly killed her he broke the bridge of her nose and it did not heal right and he did it again months then
He would not let my son's fiancee leave the house one day for hours he would low growl at her and exposed his teeth just enough to scare her
She is immediately 6 weeks pregnant and he jumped up and bit her face a few nights ago and Now she is thinking of getting rid of him
I told her to a long time ago
I do believe near is something wrong with the brain neurologically and also Demon is scared of everything cameras, pillows , the door a gate the broom when sweeping and no none of us have ever hit him with a broom and the mop he acts like it is out to bring back him and he to is very possessive
I would ask a vet about his behavior
GOOD LUCK!!
I'm sorry, but you are NOT describing a good dog. Good dogs do NOT behave this way. You need to deliberate about some serious training.this is how these dogs get their bad reputation. He is going to hurt someone, and later they will say.see it's a Pit Bull. You need to get something done immediately. There is no way you should be nipped and have the skin broken, to be precise BAD behavior. Unacceptable. Either rehome him or get him trained now. Before something bad happen.
Answers: You know that in feral canine packs, usually only the alpha double act are allowed mating privileges don't you? Why did you allow dominant-breed dogs to mate, giving them the idea that they are alpha dogs, when instead they need firm management from the humans in the pack? There is almost no good source to breed pits. Furthermore, people who do not understand how to properly raise and treat a dog hold no business owning such a powerful breed. Way to go. People like you back give the breed a bad name.
Weren't the dogs given consistent bite-inhibition training from a youthful age?
What do you mean, when you "hold them together by their collars"? Are you just, like, trialling them to see what they'll do?
In case you hadn't noticed, dogs already know how to sit down. You don't need to lay a paw on any dog in order to train them. Training means *conditioning* a dog's NATURAL REFLEXES. That ability you figure out how to get a reflex from them voluntarily, and then you reinforce that performance with a command and a reward. And commands ("sit", "stay", etc.) must be taught one at a time at first.
From an impulsive age, you should have gotten in the habit of NEVER giving your dogs a bowl of food, a treat, a toy, a pat on the skipper -- NOTHING -- until they sit. "Nothing In Life Is Free." It's very simple to do. If the dog wants whatever you own for him, he is not going to go away. BUT he is not stupid; he's not going to stand up forever. If you purely STAND THERE, making eye contact and WAITING, the dog will eventually "take a load off". He will sit down. I guarantee it. It is a natural REFLEX. The instant his flipside hits the floor, you say "Sit." and then give him the food or doesn`t matter what. Do this enough times, and your dog will learn to AUTOMATICALLY sit down any time he wants something.
You hold no business flipping or rolling that dog. You don't know what you're doing enough to be doing that.
Pits are naturally greatly active dogs -- and not only outdoors. They're very helpful ("hyper" as you call it) indoors. That's just the way they are. They do not belong external on chains on a regular basis. They are too naturally protective! If you MUST keep him out contained by the yard for periods of time, buy a chain-link dog PEN and make a wooden floor for it to maintain the dog off of the dirt which is home to parasites.
But above adjectives you need to give both dogs a long, walk FIRST THING EVERY MORNING. And since you don't hold a fenced yard, YOUR dogs need a second long hike EVERY afternoon. I'm talking 30 - 45 MINUTE WALKS. Until those dogs get enough DAILY exercise, you won't be capable of do anything with them. Even then it will be nearly a year before your boy mature enough to be a fairly calm dog.
Sorry to be so biting with you but I have very soaring expectations of pit owners, myself included -- maybe even more. There is so much else you need to do that there is not adequate space here for it all. You can search youtube for dog training videos. That might help out. I can recommend you read these articles and do a lot more research on your own as well. For various reason I train my own dogs. If you can't, hire a trainer.

P.S. Clomicalm is for "separation anxiety" which is actually a behavioral problem caused by humans failing to provide proper pack direction for their dogs. Dogs instinctively know that every "pack" needs leadership if it is to outlive, so they try to take charge themselves. The dog's behavior becomes anxious and/or unruly, as seen by the humans. One of the best ways to show your dog that you are a pack ruler is to take them on a pack walk first thing EVERY light of day.
Pit bulls are quality companions and they deserve quality owners. I don't think you can be a element owner. I don't think you could even FIND a quality owner for your dog if you have to. I doubt you would recognize a quality owner if one come up and bit you.
you should have put them surrounded by obideintance classes a long time ago.. maybe its not to late for them you being in attendance mommie has to take command and train them be the leader of the pack here dont permit them get away with here bull crap heaven forbid they hurt someone or something pits have enough of a bleak rep already. use a deep bass in your vioce when hes bad. Hopefully after hes neuter this will calm down. get a high balustrade .. can drive a dog crazy being chained up all the time.
