[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This dog belonged to my ex, and he died.

I believe she is very unlikely to be adopted if she goes back to the Fx Co shelter, which is where he acquired her. She is animal aggressive, [b]and has to be the only animal in the home[/b]. She is a pit mix. She is 10 years old.

Our daughter is very upset about the whole situation. She just signed a 12 mo lease at a place with breed restrictions.

Any ideas on rehoming her? [b]Would it be crazy to bring her home with me[/b] to see if her animal aggression has waned in her sundown years? I have a 3 year old dog. [/quote]

You're saying two different things.  If it has to be the only animal because it's bitten or attacked multiple other animals, then YES you would be crazy.  Support your daughter by helping her contact no-kill shelters and rescues, including pit specific rescues.

Even if I didn't have a dog in my own home, I wouldn't want to own a [b]dog that can slip its leash and attack[/b].[/quote]

The dog has killed several animals, attacked animals at the vet and could pose a threat to humans, especially young children when taken out in public. Moving the dog into an apartment building would be insane and reckless.

Find a no kill shelter and make a big donation from the estate. OP, do not risk your dog's life and your own safety, it's inevitable there will be a lapse and the dog will have to be put down. Your dog may also be dead. How could you live with yourself?

It's a blessing that her housing has a breed restriction, the dog is dangerous. It took a grown man to lay on the dog to keep it from killing your dog, and perhaps, attacking you? How is a young girl going to control this known to be dangerous animal? [/quote]
