[Dailydrool] Conley and Doc

[Tina via Dailydrool]

Bev, my heart breaks for you.  I personally know the stress and anguish you must be feeling with the aggression in Conley.  I'm not sure if you remember but our basset, Maggie, was also very aggressive.  At the time we also had a chocolate lab.  We just thought she played hard but at times he would cry out although she never drew blood.  After he died of kidney failure, she was an only dog for awhile.  This didn't change her aggression.  She bit everyone in the house including me several times and we would always make excuses for her.  We got her as a puppy so we knew she hadn't been mistreated.  Later when she went down in the rear, she refused to let us help and would growl and snap.  Fearing a bite in the face, we had to put her down.  It broke my heart because we felt we had tried SO hard!  Could Conley be in pain and he is lashing out?  Does he think it's HIS place now to be Alpha?  I wish I had words of wisdom to pass along but I don't.  Just know we are here for you and some of us know of the stress and pain firsthand and are praying for you all.  😔
