| Re: Attacked another dog
Glitter obviously doesn't care for these dogs and she clearly showed her dislike by what she did. That's wonderful Glitter is good with almost every dog she meets, regardless of sex, but the point is your daughter wasn't able to control her when she wasn't. A characteristic of a good handler is that he or she isn't taken by surprise because they're watching the dog and are so closely attuned to the dog they are able to nip things in the bud. With good handlers, things don't get out of control. It is possible your daughter will be a stellar handler when she gets older, but I agree with others whose opinion is that it is risky for a child to handle a dog like a Rottie.
I suggest your new dog be a male. It can be nasty at best, deadly at worst, when two females decide the planet is too small for both of them. |
