I don’t know what to do any more.
My dog is that dog people on this subreddit often talk about.
Shes happy and friendly. She goes to the off leash park and plays with other dogs every day. She greets strangers carefully then full on climbs on them for pets.
She sweet and noble. And then for a second it’s like she’s someone else and she grabs one of the other dogs in the house and it’s terrifying and absolutely horrible.
We visit the vet once every two weeks with a new bite and the behavioralist is at a loss.
It’s like she forgets these are the dogs she eats with everyday , the dogs she shares the car with, the dogs she defends at the park and the dogs she often plays and sleeps with.
She’s our newest rescue and I’m not ready to give up but I simply don’t know how to keep going.
edit to add extra info:
She’s now been to more vets than I can count. We have run every test in the book, she’s had her thyroid checked, an ultrasound, she’s been to a neurologist. All tell me I have a perfectly healthy dog.
She has a single tick , she attacks one of her paws no vet has been able to diagnose her and the behavioralist thinks it’s physical not a behavior problem while all the vets who check her out tell me it’s anxiety. She started taking Prozac a week or so ago.
She’s 2 years old, used to live in in the streets in Mexico. She’s been with me for a year and with the other dogs (lost my apartment due to the pandemic ) 4 months.
