[quote=Anonymous]Thank you for the helpful responses.

My husband and I talked (and cried) about it for several hours last night before bed. He is on board with getting rid of the dog whichever way is best.

We are 100% sure we are not keeping him.
We are 100% sure we are not rehoming him to just any regular person.

We have looked into rescues specifically for aggressive dogs. My husband is going to contact a few of them today and explain the situation. Depending on what they say, we will have a plan and take care of this one way or the other this week or early next week.

My kids are not in any danger. The way the house is set up and how they are separated, there is absolutely no way they can get to each other. My husband is the only one who handles the dog. I go near him twice a day to feed him and my husband takes care of the rest.

He had stopped his aggressive behavior for the most part for a long time, so we thought it would be fine once he got used to the kids. Obviously this isn't what any of us wanted in any way.

My husband pointed out that the dog hasn't been acting right over the past couple weeks. As I said, my husband is the only one who handles/takes care of him, so I hadn't noticed. He may be sick and euthanizing him might be the best option for that reason too. It's my understanding that purebred dogs have more health issues than mixed breed dogs, and I would assume it would be even worse in inbred dogs.[/quote]
