[quote=Anonymous]Trainer here 2 years old is when maturity sets in for many dogs, and hormones and brain issues come out to play. Neutering doesn't fix much in most cases. It's not surprising that 2 is when you started to see these issues. Just like in human beings, where mental illness often becomes apparent in late adolescence, it is the same in dogs. All that to say it's likely nothing you did, and nothing you can do. You have tried trainers, drugs, vets. It sucks so much to be in this situation, but the safest, most humane thing to do is put the dog down. You cannot rehome it to anyone. Even if you weren't liable, surely you would feel terrible to learn that the dog had bit someone. While you are determining your next steps, please keep the dog separate from your other dog and family members. Utilize x-pens, closed doors, and/or "crate and rotate" (what owners of dog aggressive breeds use).[/quote]
